Hawks, Doves, and Owls: An Agenda for Avoiding Nuclear War

by Graham T. Allison

Book Overview

The debate over national security and arms control has focused primarily on weapons--more or fewer weapons, different kinds of weapons. Hawks tend to see the immediate cause of war as one-sided weakness that tempts an aggressive adversary. For Doves, the primary cause of war lies in arms races that become provocative.
