Explore a 37-minute lecture from Inside Livermore Lab's Center for Global Security Research (CGSR) examining the complex dynamics of the US-China stability-instability paradox and its implications for limited warfare scenarios in East Asia. Presented by researchers Henrik Stålhane Hiim and Øystein Tunsjø, this talk delves into how nuclear deterrence between major powers can paradoxically increase the likelihood of limited conventional conflicts while preventing full-scale war. Learn about the strategic calculations, military posturing, and geopolitical tensions that characterize this "double trouble" scenario, offering valuable insights into one of the most consequential security relationships in the contemporary international system.
