This issue of the Quarterly covers a variety of defense-related topics that center on nuclear proliferation, the defense industry and cyberspace. The featured articles specifically address 1) the role of Minuteman missiles in a modernized US nuclear arsenal; 2) the continued importance of nuclear deterrence; 3) the US’ use of “cost imposition strategies” against China; 4) the impact of an increasingly cyber-active world on the global distribution of power; and 5) what’s needed to surmount the legal and technical barriers that surround the problem of space debris.
