Abstract

I offer a critique of deterrence and suggest how it could be used more effectively when combined in sophisticated ways with reassurance and diplomacy. When used in appropriate combinations and with appropriate framing based on the specific circumstances at hand, these conflict management strategies can reduce the likelihood of war and help bring about accommodation. However, decisions about how and whether to deploy these strategies are highly context dependent with respect to both goals.
