This title was first published in 2000. By applying constructivist arguments about culture, norms and identity this book explains the superpower negotiations that produced the INF Treaty. It contributes to the constructivist research program in two ways. First, it develops a speech act model of social interaction to illustrate constructivist arguments and second, it develops a constructivist theory of security dilemmas that suggests practical ways to resolve them. The conclusion is that the dominant understanding of the end of the Cold War (the build-up argument) is not correct, it advocates policies that tend to perpetuate conflicts. Instead it is argued that the new thinking explanation is more coherent and suggests improved practical ways to resolve other security dilemmas.
