Key Highlights
Political Science · International Relations
This study examines the resilience of the global nuclear order following the collapse of the Soviet Union, a pivotal moment that threatened to unravel decades of arms control and nonproliferation architecture. The research analyzes how the existing institutional frameworks and great power cooperation adapted to prevent nuclear proliferation and maintain strategic stability during this period of profound geopolitical upheaval. For a writer and retired public servant who has navigated complex systems in energy and IT procurement, this case study offers a powerful lens on how institutional structures can survive and adapt to radical change, a theme with clear parallels in governance, policy, and even spiritual traditions that emphasize order emerging from apparent chaos.
