Description: The National Institute for Public Policy devotes its agenda to assessing U.S. foreign and defense polices in this new environment. Founded in 1981, National Institute is a non-profit public education organization that focuses on a wide spectrum of rapidly evolving foreign policy and international issues. High-quality, cogent analysis is the hallmark of the National Institute studies, books, and articles. National Institute published products emphasize the qualitative factors that have a significant impact on the U.S. position in the world and on making careful researched prescriptions on the necessary adaptations in U.S. policy. Areas of focus are: the proliferation of missiles and weapons of mass destruction, the effectiveness of deterrence theory in a post-Cold War framework, U.S./allied measures to delay and counter the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and missile delivery systems, the future of NATO and U.S.-allied security, the future of U.S.-Russian political-military relations, Russian security strategy and arms control policy, the evolution of arms control regimes, the future of U.S. strategic forces and the role of nuclear weapons, the roles and missions of the U.S. intelligence community in the new security environment, the role of air power as an instrument of U.S. strategy, the role of ballistic missile defense in U.S. security policy, emerging transnational threats, and space power and policy studies.
