Abstract: Since World War II, when atomic weapons were developed, nuclear deterrence has been a fundamental component of international security. Essentially, nuclear deterrence is deployment of nuclear weapons to threaten and overwhelm retaliation to stop enemies from acting aggressively. The basis of this strategy is Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) principle, which argues that any nuclear attack by one country would result in a devastating response, ensuring the extinction of both parties. During the Cold War, MAD theory influenced world geopolitics, and for many nations today, nuclear deterrence remains a key component of military strategy. Although it is debatable that nuclear weapons have avoided major conflicts, their continued applicability in a world that is changing rapidly is currently under scrutiny. Technological developments, efficacy of nuclear weapons, and moral dilemmas associated with application of such destructive force constitute a few of the challenges that have developed as the 21st century has advanced and challenged efficacy of nuclear deterrence. The rise of new nuclear states, particularly in volatile regions, has complicated the global security environment, while advancements in missile defence systems and cyber warfare raise questions about the credibility of deterrence strategies. Moreover, the ethical dilemma surrounding the threat of mass destruction inherent in nuclear deterrence remains a contentious issue. While some contend that nuclear weapons remain necessary to preserve global security, others support complete nuclear disarmament. The purpose of this paper is to examine the value of nuclear deterrence, its difficulties in the current geopolitical environment, and its prospects in a world that is becoming more complicated. A thorough analysis of nuclear deterrence's role in modern international security will be given in this paper by examining its historical efficacy, the political and technological obstacles it encounters, and the moral arguments surrounding its justification.
