Abstract
The nuclear arms control architecture that underwrites European security is crumbling. Europe cannot achieve global nuclear disarmament or build its own credible deterrent, but it can clear the path for the next generation of arms governance through joint action, argue CSS Alex Bollfrass and Mariana Budjeryn in this CSS Policy Perspective. A European diversity in nuclear weapons status and NATO affiliation makes the pursuit of a nuclear ban or a credible pan-European deterrent untenable. Nevertheless, an institutionalized European coalition for arms control will amplify European capacity to influence nuclear arms reductions and shape multilateral non-nuclear arms governance.
