Spring may be on the horizon but it's not too late to catch up with the 2019 winter issue of The Washington Quarterly. A global security journal hosted by the Elliott School of International Affairs, The Washington Quarterly prides itself on offering diverse analysis of strategic changes, trends, and international relations with a focus on important public policy implications. The scholarship in the winter 2019 issue focuses on two themes: provocations and Pakistan's nuclear strategy. With regard to the former, the journal looks at burying the two-war construct, reviving long-term competition, Germany's outlook, and assessing China's rise. On the latter, authors take a deep-dive on Pakistan's nuclear trajectory and the rationale behind its nuclear restraint.
