extended deterrence  

Definición

  • The idea of extended deterrence is for one actor (A), normally a state, to provide for the security of another (B) by threatening to punish another actor (C) should C undertake a particular course of action against B. The concept is therefore focused on the deterrent concept of punishment rather than denial. At the very heart of the concept of extended deterrence lies the issue of credibility—is another actor prepared to act on behalf of a third party? If the answer is yes, then extended deterrence can work; if the answer is no, then extended deterrence automatically fails. [Source: Encyclopedia of Power; Extended Deterrence]
