Thinking about nuclear deterrence theory: why evolutionary psychology undermines its rational actor assumptions
Article Abstract:
The contention that rational deterrence theory assumes that nuclear decision makers will make rational decisions about nuclear use due to their rationality is flawed. It is dangerous to assume a similar outcome in deterrent situations when there is variation in cognition among leaders and there is a need to replace the theory of universal rationality with a gradated understanding of rationality.
