Abstract
In the June-July 2009 issue of Survival, Scott D. Sagan argued the current case for the United States to adopt a declaratory policy of no nuclear first use. Survival invited four experts from Europe, Asia and North America to comment on Sagan's argument. The author concludes the debate with his own final thoughts.
