Stephen Herzog
The following describes a National Institute for Deterrence Studies podcast.
Stephen Herzog joined Christine Leah and Carl Rhodes on the National Institute for Deterrence Studies’ “Deterrence Down Under” podcast for a conversation titled “Nuclear Policy, What Could Go Wrong?”
Their conversation covered a number of different pieces of Herzog’s CNS work. This included his open-access co-edited volume Atomic Backfires: When Nuclear Policies Fail, work on public opinion suggesting that people around the world may simultaneously embrace deterrence and disarmament, and the new special issue of The Nonproliferation Review, which focuses on the nexus of artificial intelligence and weapons of mass destruction.
