This book assesses how progress in disarmament diplomacy in the
last decade has improved human security. In doing so, the book
looks at three cases of the development of international norms in
this arena. First, it traces how new international normative
understandings have shaped the evolution of and support for an Arms
Trade Treaty (the supply side of the arms trade); and, second, it
examines the small arms international regime and examines a
multilateral initiative that aims to address the demand side (by
the Geneva Declaration); and, third, it examines the evolution of
two processes to ban and regulate cluster munitions. The formation
of international norms in these areas is a remarkable development,
as it means that a domain that was previously thought to be the
exclusive purview of states, i.e. how they procure and manage arms,
has been penetrated by multiple influences from worldwide civil
society. As a result, norms and treaties are being established to
address the domain of arms, and states will have more multilateral
restriction over their arms and less sovereignty in this domain.
This book will be of much interest to students of the arms trade,
international security, international law, human security and IR in
general. Denise Garcia is Assistant Professor in the Department of
Political Science at Northeastern University, Boston. She is author
of Small Arms and Security (Routledge 2006).
