Coercing Allies: Why Friends Abandon Nuclear Plans. - 302 p.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Brandeis University, 2013.

This thesis studies under what conditions the U.S. can coerce its allies to forgo nuclear weapons. Specifically, why did Taiwan and South Korea give up their nuclear pursuits under American duress, while Israel and Pakistan attained a nuclear capability? The existing theoretical perspectives explain why some countries are resolved to pursue nuclear weapons, but they do not illuminate why some states successfully get from the motivation to build the bomb to an operational nuclear weapon and others do not.

520 $a This thesis studies under what conditions the U.S. can coerce its allies to forgo nuclear weapons. Specifically, why did Taiwan and South Korea give up their nuclear pursuits under American duress, while Israel and Pakistan attained a nuclear capability? The existing theoretical perspectives explain why some countries are resolved to pursue nuclear weapons, but they do not illuminate why some states successfully get from the motivation to build the bomb to an operational nuclear weapon and others do not.
520 $a To explain the uneven record of U.S. coercion against its Cold War allies, I evaluate three hypotheses from the coercion, inducements and nuclear spread literatures. First, I evaluate a hypothesis that leads us to expect that the U.S. will have an easier time coercing those allies that are highly dependent on Washington's military protection and/or energy supplies. Second, I evaluate a hypothesis that predicts that coercion by denial works better than coercion by punishment. Denial works by restricting the ally's access to fissile materials, nuclear technology and equipment through multilateral or bilateral inspections (demoralization), international interdiction of technology (export controls), or actual forced disablement of the target state's nuclear facilities (disablement). Punishment operates by imposing costs---through threats not to defend the ally or through military, economic or energy sanctions---to deter the ally from moving forward on the nuclear front. Third, I assess a hypothesis, which suggests that military reassurance is more likely to lead to nonproliferation success than non-military rewards.
520 $a The key finding is that denial, not punishment, succeeds in stopping and reversing allied nuclear programs. Coercion by demoralization (e.g., inspections) can be particularly effective, and the U.S. has an easier time enforcing this measure against highly-dependent allies than against low-dependence allies. Washington may not have to offer incentives to highly-dependent allies, and it can instead simply force them into submission. Low-dependence allies will not respond to either non-military rewards (e.g., economic and technological offers) or limited military reassurance (military aid) alone. Likewise, the U.S. cannot stop such allies by either (or both) full-scale punishment or limited denial.
