This week, the popular (by academic standards!) online forum for political scientists and historians working on diplomacy and international relations, H-Diplo, featured a roundtable of reviews on my 2022 book Euromissiles.
It features reviews from four scholars working on similar questions: James Cameron, Stephanie Freeman, Marilena Gala, and Stephan Kieninger, along with an introduction from James Goldgeier and a some concluding thoughts from me dealing with a few themes the four reviewers highlight.
A snippet from Goldgeier’s intro:
Given the uncertain fate of arms control today, and growing concerns about the ability of the United States to deter potentially two-peer nuclear weapons states, Susan Colbourn’s book on the Euromissile debate, deployment, and elimination is important, essential, and timely. Stephan Kieninger calls it “an outstanding achievement.” James Cameron agrees it is “an outstanding book…it should become the go-to text for scholars of this topic and a necessary one for those working on the US-Soviet arms race, arms control, and the Cold War’s final decade.”
