During this presentation, the speakers will discuss the following content derived from their book:\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EDuring the Cold War, many believed that the superpowers shared a conception of strategic stability, a coexistence where both sides would compete for global influence but would be deterred from using nuclear weapons. In actuality, both sides understood strategic stability and deterrence quite differently. Today\u0026#39;s international system is further complicated by more nuclear powers, regional rivalries, and nonstate actors who punch above their weight, but the United States and other nuclear powers still cling to old conceptions of strategic stability.\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nThe purpose of this book is to unpack and examine how different states in different regions view strategic stability, the use or non-use of nuclear weapons, and whether or not strategic stability is still a prevailing concept. The contributors to this volume explore policies of current and potential nuclear powers including the United States, Russia, China, India, Iran, Israel, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. This volume makes an important contribution toward understanding how nuclear weapons will impact the international system in the twenty-first century and will be useful to students, scholars, and practitioners of nuclear weapons policy.\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EPlease dial 866-712-4038, then passcode 37250264# to enter the teleconference.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EFor more information on their book, please the \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/press.georgetown.edu\/book\/georgetown\/end-strategic-stability\u0022\u003EGeorgetown Press Website\u003C\/a\u003E.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"You are invited to the SMA STRATCOM Academic Alliance speaker session presented by Lawrence Rubin, associate professor in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs, and Adam Stulberg, professor in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs"}],"uid":"34435","created_gmt":"2018-11-06 14:07:26","changed_gmt":"2018-11-06 14:07:26","author":"jpalacios9","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2018-11-07T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2018-11-07T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2018-11-07T14:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2018-11-07 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2018-11-07 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2018-11-07 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"613549":{"id":"613549","type":"image","title":"Adam Stulberg and Lawrence Rubin","body":null,"created":"1541000542","gmt_created":"2018-10-31 15:42:22","changed":"1541000542","gmt_changed":"2018-10-31 15:42:22","alt":"Two photo portraits of Sam Nunn School of International Affairs Professors Adam Stulberg and Lawrence Rubin","file":{"fid":"233570","name":"rubin and stulberg.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/rubin%20and%20stulberg.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/rubin%20and%20stulberg.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":28710,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/rubin%20and%20stulberg.jpg?itok=zqoJNYPp"}}},"media_ids":["613549"],"groups":[{"id":"1286","name":"Center for International Strategy, Technology, and Policy (CISTP)"},{"id":"597139","name":"International Affairs Alumni in Washington DC"},{"id":"1281","name":"Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts"},{"id":"1285","name":"Sam Nunn School of International Affairs"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"8769","name":"cold war"},{"id":"4032","name":"Nuclear Weapons"},{"id":"45531","name":"Nuclear Strategic Stability"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"177814","name":"Postdoc"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:chris.mcdermott@gatech.edu\u0022\u003EChris McDermott\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EResearch Associate\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
