With the post-cold war emphasis on the proliferation of weapons of
mass destruction, the neglected dimension has been the spread of
advanced conventional arms. Yet these are the arms most likely to
be used in conflict. They present the greatest diversion from
economic and social development, and are the centerpiece of
regional security balances. This book examines the policies and
practices of the major arms-supplying nations, looks at the impact
of weapons purchases on the principal recipient regions and the
possibilities for regional arms control, and dissects the economics
of arms exports for the producer nations in both the developing and
industrialized worlds. The book thoroughly discusses the
opportunities for, and obstacles to, achieving multilateral
restraint on arms. In addition to the editor, contributors are Ian
Anthony, Stockholm International Peace Research Institute; Nicole
Ball, Overseas Development Council; Julian Cooper, University of
Birmingham; Lawrence Freedman and Martin Navias, King's College,
London; Rodney Jones, Policy Architects International; Ethan
Kapstein, University of Minnesota; Michael Klare, Five College
Program in Peace and World Security Studies; Andrew Mack,
Australian National University; Abdel Monem Said Aly, Center for
Political and Strategic Studies, Cairo; Janne Nolan, Brookings
Institution; Andrew Ross, Naval War College; Gerald Segal,
International Institute for Strategic Studies; and Gerald
Steinberg, Bar-Ilan University, Israel. Copublished with the World
Peace Foundation
