High strategic polarization with fragile nuclear deterrence balancing conventional proxy escalation.

Strategic Modeling Framework

Inspired by the foreign policy debate on The Axios Show regarding nuclear threshold theory, Waltzian proliferation stability hypothesis, and regional security dilemmas. Stability measures structural deterrence resilience minus asymmetric escalation triggers. Escalation risk represents the likelihood of tactical friction spilling over into inter-state conflict.
