This study explores the theoretical underpinnings of this subject, including treatment of the different kinds of deterrence, and what we know, think we know, and don't know about deterrence. The study is intended to assist Global 93 players in identifying and developing deterrence strategies options that may be appropriate for regional crisis situations of this decade.
