  18. What does a Finlandized Eastern Europe look like?

    Well imagine if like Finland's nearest non-soviet state had remained formally neutral in WWII, that central Europe's nearest non-soviet state had remained formally neutral in WWII. With a neutral German in WWII, sure, central Europe might be finlandisable.

  19. 1950s "Limited" Nuclear War

    For the Soviet Union to perceive the need to first strike, they would have to have had perceived a first strike. So there's going to be considerable institutional lag between their perception and their action: they will not be prepared to act first and fast, but will be accidentally acting...
