The United States has committed itself to an unprecedented number
and variety of arms control and nonproliferation obligations in the
past decade. At least ten major new agreements have been signed
since 1986, and some of them have now been in force for several
years. After a brief review of Cold War arms control and the
lessons to be learned from it, the book surveys the commitments the
United States has made during the past decade across the full
spectrum of arms control, including nuclear, conventional,
chemical, and biological weapons. It describes the bureaucratic
structure the United States has created to implement its own
commitments and to verify that other countries are complying with
theirs. The book then analyzes the costs and benefits of the new
regimes, the persistent problems encountered in managing them, and
the causes and appropriate responses to incidents of noncompliance.
It concludes with an argument for continued U.S. leadership in
international arms control.
