Up to now this critically important aspect of the nuclear age has* been buried in the deepest sub-cellar of official secrecy. Yet most everyone knew it was there and the very suppression left ordinary citizens uncomfortable. To define the shadow area: It is the deliberate use of uncertainty —that maybe, maybe, the other fellow cannot be sure, you might respond to a given use of conventional force by reply- _ ing with nuclear weapons. You thereby impose a risk on your opponent. Every time he considers using © conventional force—or more’ important, every time he considers becoming involv- ed'in some already shooting local incident . —~he has ‘to calculate what you might do* about it. Both. sides in the present cold war have used, and continue to use, this cal- culated’ uncertainty. It. is a staple of. imil- itary strategy. The only difference bet , “is to work with people, people everywhere and in every walk of life.
