Description
"Frederking applies constructivist arguments about culture, norms and identity to explain the superpower negotiations that produced the INF Treaty. Frederking concludes that the dominant understanding of the end of the Cold War (the buildup argument) is not correct as it advocates policies that tend to perpetuate conflicts. Instead he argues that the "new thinking" explanation is more coherent and suggests improved practical ways to resolve other security dilemmas."--Jacket.
