    About this ebook

    European Security: Nuclear or Conventional Defence? documents the proceedings of the IVth International Symposium held in Geneva on December 8-10, 1983. This book compiles papers on the INF negotiations on intermediate-range nuclear missiles in Europe and START talks on strategic nuclear arms, focusing on four themes— nuclear threats, public reactions, arms race and arms control, and alternative paths. The topics discussed include consequences in Europe of a nuclear conflict; expected impact of the use of nuclear weapons on battlefields, towns, and cities; peace movements in Europe; and Europe and non-violent defense. The aims, roles and prospects of arms control; problem of conventional defense; risk of nuclear war; and nuclear disarmament are also deliberated in this text. This publication is a good source for students and researchers aiming to acquire knowledge of the possible consequences of a nuclear conflict in Europe.
