Tick Tock... The "Doomsday Clock" is set at two minutes to midnight, a "new abnormal" according to the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists. You should understand the fundamentals of global nuclear proliferation and the expansion and modernization being undertaken by the major nuclear powers.
Dr. Susan Haynes talked with the "Tick Tock Project" of our "Global Tennessee" Podcast about nuclear weapons strategies and concepts as well as a review of Chinese and Russian nuclear forces. Haynes also discussed the United States nuclear forces and modernization and the impact of strategic missile defenses on proliferation.
Dr. Susan Haynes is a Professor of Political Science, Lipscomb University and author of "Chinese Nuclear Proliferation: How Global Politics is Transforming China's Weapons Buildup and Modernization."
Join us for this Podcast, the second Podcast episode in our "Tick Tock Project" -- a six month deep dive at the Tennessee World Affairs Council into the existential threat posed by nuclear weapons, made even more critical with the current proliferation, expansion and modernization.
