ABSTRACT
An international criminal court is unlikely to come into being. But there are other measures under international law that could and should be used in the arsenal of international counternuclear terrorism measures. In so organizing their counternuclear terrorist activities, governments can begin to develop a rationally conceived "behavioral technology" that distinguishes contingencies of reinforcement according to the particular type of terrorists involved. There are special difficulties involved in implementing behavioral measures of counternuclear terrorism internationally. Since nuclear terrorism might take place across national boundaries, the basic principles of terrorist strategies must also be applied internationally. This means that those nations that are most vulnerable to nuclear terrorist attack must learn to call upon the "doctor" as well as the "locksmith." While it is critical for them to harden the target, it is also essential that they learn to soften the adversary.
