Nuclear ambignity (1): India

In: Pacific research: periodical of the Peace Research Centre, Band 6, Heft 2, S. 3-5

Abstract

India tested a nuclear device in 1974. India subsequently designated it as a 'peaceful nuclear explosion' and carefully constructed a declared nuclear doctrine of ambiguous intent. The authors examine the reasons for this ambignity against the back-drop of the China-India-Pakistan triangel and China's and Pakistan's nuclear capacity. (DÜI-Sen)
