Book Synopsis Controlling the Arms Trade by : Richard Latter
Download or read book Controlling the Arms Trade written by Richard Latter and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a report based on Wilton Park Conference 288 held in November 1992 and entitled Controlling the Arms Trade: Security Imperatives and Economic Consequences. The change in the international atmosphere and the resulting decline in the markets for defence equipment in North America and Europe is a positive incentive for arms control in the future, and it has been supplemented by a decline in the Third World market. This report points out, however, that countervailing pressures are making the restriction of the arms trade more difficult. It remains an open question whether existing opportunities for arms control will be exploited, of if arms control will in fact be the first casualty of the the post-Cold War peace dividend.
Book Synopsis The International Arms Trade by : Rachel Stohl
Download or read book The International Arms Trade written by Rachel Stohl and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-29 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The multi-billion dollar business of the international conventional arms trade involves virtually every country in the world. Around the globe, people's lives are being irrevocably changed by the effects of guns, tanks, and missiles. These weapons have the potential to cause a deadly and current threat - one responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths a year. This succinct and accessible new book explores the complexities and realities of the global conventional weapons trade. The first book on the subject in nearly a decade, The International Arms Trade provides an engaging introduction to the trade, the effects, and the consequences of these weapons. The authors trace the history of the arms trade and examine how it has evolved since the end of the Cold War. In particular, they assess the role of the largest arms exporters and importers, the business of selling conventional arms around the world, and shed new light on the illicit arms trade and the shadowy dealers who profit from their deadly commerce. The book also looks closely at the devastating effect the business can have on countries, societies, and individuals and concludes with an evaluation of the various existing control strategies and the potential for future control opportunities. The International Arms Trade will be invaluable for students and scholars of international relations and security studies, and for policymakers and anyone interested in understanding more about the conventional arms trade.

Book Synopsis Reconceptualising Arms Control by : Neil Cooper
Download or read book Reconceptualising Arms Control written by Neil Cooper and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory and practice of arms control seemed to have its heyday during the height of the Cold War, with its focus on the East-West conflict and nuclear arms. In the past twenty years, both arms technologies and various practices aimed at their control have continued to develop, but scholarly thinking has not kept up. This volume seeks to redress this scholarly neglect of the range of issues associated with the control of the means of violence, by asking the question: what does arms control mean in the 21st Century? In asking this question, the volume examines issues surrounding sovereignty, geopolitics, nuclear disarmament, securitization of space, technological developments, human rights, the clearance of landmines, the regulation of small arms and the control of the black market for arms and nuclear secrets. The book discusses terrorism with reference to the case of the suicide attacks in Beirut in 1983 and how the Obama administration is orientating its posture on nuclear arms. This book was published as a special issue of Contemporary Security Policy.
Book Synopsis Arms Trade and Europe by : Paul Cornish
Download or read book Arms Trade and Europe written by Paul Cornish and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1995-03-12 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on conventional weapons, rather than nuclear, biological and chemical ones, this book draws attention to important differences, within the EU, between the trade in finished weapons and the technology used to make them. It examines West European efforts since 1945 to manage both sides of conventional defence-related trade, and the political, industrial, technological and conceptual obstacles to effective mulitlateral co-ordination and regulation. The book argues that, in current European and international circumstances, recent EU initiatives have limited prospects and may prove to be counterproductive.>
