Eight prominent Russian experts contribute to this unique
Russian-American analysis of the state of Russia's arms industry
and national export controls, as well as the strategic implications
of Russian arms sales to China and clients in the Middle East.
Since the early 1990s, Russia's once colossal defense-industrial
complex has been in upheaval. Parts of the arms industry have
collapsed, and hopes for conversion from military to civilian
production have proven largely illusory. An aggressive arms-sales
policy--seen as a panacea--has also met with mixed results. At the
same time, turmoil in domestic politics and in the reform process
has limited and slowed much-needed changes in the industry's
organization, operations, decisionmaking, and controls over the
export of arms and sensitive technologies. The authors examine
these and other issues posed by Russia's participation in the world
arms trade, weigh the chances of Russian-American discord over arms
exports to " rogue states" as well as the possibilities for arms
cooperation; discuss the prospects for Russia's expanded
participation in multilateral arms restraint and international
norm-setting, and offer policy proposals. The book evolved from
discussions of the Russian-American working group on conventional
arms proliferation convened by the co-editors at the Carnegie
Endowment's Moscow Center.
