The following volume consists of research that the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center (NPEC) commissioned and vetted throughout 2006. For at least half of the chapters, authors presented versions of their work as testimony before Congressional oversight committees. Among them are some of the sharpest critics and staunchest boosters of U.S.-Indian nuclear and strategic cooperation. No matter what one’s point of view, though, these chapters deserve close attention since all are focused on what is needed to assure U.S.-Indian strategic cooperation succeeds. The volume offers U.S. and Indian policy and law makers a detailed checklist of things to watch, avoid, and try to achieve. Funding for this project came from the Catherine D. MacArthur Foundation. Ashley Tellis and George Perkovich of the Carnegie Endowment, Gary Schmitt of the American Enterprise Institute, Gary Samore from the Council on Foreign Relations, Robert Einhorn of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a select number of officials within the U.S. Executive Branch, and numerous aides serving on Capitol Hill provided guidance and assistance. Special thanks is due to Ali Naqvi, NPEC’s project manager, who was saddled with the responsibility of arranging the many dinner seminars at which each chapter was shared with Capitol Hill and Executive Branch Staff, embassy officials, policy analysts, and the press. Finally, this is the eighth in a series of edited volumes NPEC has produced with the Strategic Studies Institute (SSI). To the book’s authors, the SSI staff, and all those who made this book possible, NPEC and SSI are indebted.
