		<description><![CDATA[Also published here. When most people think of &#8220;the Cold War nuclear arms race&#8221;, they think of Reagan and Gorbachev, Kennedy and Khrushchev, treaties and international summits, Presidents and Premiers.

Back in January, I found myself smiling over the title of an article: &#8220;Arms Control: It’s Back and Hot!&#8221; I was amused, because in my mind, nuclear arms control never went away.
