Abstract/Summary

This thesis attempts to utilize a modified reassurance game framework to understand post Cold War security cooperation in arms control and conflict resolution using the 1990 – 2000 security relations between the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the Russian Republic as case studies. It assumes that arms control and conflict resolution are linked via their effects on the resources each actor allots for defense and their perception of the other’s trustworthiness. Thus successful cooperation in one area of security cooperation will result in increased probability of success in the other area while failure to cooperate in the first area makes future cooperation in the other area nearly impossible.
