Abstract
John Bellamy Foster discusses the past and present state of U.S. nuclear policy, asserting that its reliance on belligerent approaches endangers the entire world. "Only a minimalist, as opposed to a maximalist, approach to nuclear arms can put humanity on the road to nuclear disarmament," he writes, concluding that "the answer lies in a worldwide shift away from dying capitalism to…complete socialism."
