Abstract
In an increasingly evolving global geopolitical landscape, nuclear deterrence strategies face an unprecedented challenge as the global order transcends from a bipolar to an inevitably multipolar dimension. This paper analyses the strategies of preserving stability and security in a World dominated by diverse power centers, technological advancements and emerging global threats. It examines the practical and theoretical implications of nuclear deterrence in a polycentric context including the risk of escalation, miscalculation and proliferation. By examining the historical trends, current mechanisms and potential future events which increases the likelihood of a nuclear disaster. This research paper provides a critical perspective on how states can adapt deterrence strategies to their national needs by enhancing global stability. It adopts a theoretical framework such as the balance of power, power transition and threat to demonstrate how deterrence strategies can be better optimized without endangering mankind. This paper highlights the importance of robust communication channels, reinforcing nuclear control agreements, collaborative security policies to mitigate risks and fostering a sustainable equilibrium in the realm of nuclear affairs.
