Technology, Policy and Posture (A Case-Study of Pakistan)
This memo is based on an on-going study that explores the phenomenon of nuclear knowledge diffusion at conceptual level. Based on conceptual understanding it traces diffusion of nuclear knowledge in Pakistan with a focus on three main areas; technology, policy and posture. The underlying idea is to first investigate if diffusion of nuclear knowledge has propelled or accelerated nuclear proliferation and then evaluate the possibility of using ‘knowledge diffusion’ as a process to promote strategic stability, nonproliferation and disarmament.
