I recently had the opportunity to visit the Nevada Nuclear Security (aka Test) Site with my fellow Stanton Nuclear Security Fellows from the Center for International Security And Cooperation (aka Arms Control). Michael Freedman, the CISAC Public Affairs Manager, joined us and wrote up a nice article based on our experience for The Atlantic: “Can We Unlearn the Bomb”.

I like his article not only because it’s a meaningful account of a personal experience, but also because it captures the significance of the interaction between personal and institutional relationships to nuclear testing.
