In January 2003, nearly five years after openly declaring itself as a nuclear weapon state, India finalized its nuclear command structure and formalized its nuclear doctrine. This work argues that while a clear enunciation of its nuclear doctrine and command structure will enhance regional stability and assure the international community, it is at the operational level that India continues to, and will have to work harder to, achieve its nuclear policy goals. Nations base their nuclear doctrines and command structures on the assumptions of traditional nuclear deterrence theory. However, as this paper demonstrates, at the operational level, the simple coherence and elegance of nuclear deterrence theory begins to break down. This is the challenge that India faces as it tries to evolve into a “nuclear weapon state.” |
