The Cold War period was not less dangerous, less unstable, or less complex than the current times, nor was bi-polar rivalry between the USA and the USSR the only factor affecting nuclear weapons proliferation. Current U.S. policy on nuclear arms control should be informed by these historical realities rather than by alarmist misperceptions of the past.
