In this work, an expert on biological weapons offers a thoughtful
examination of the political and technical issues that have
affected the implementation of arms control agreements from the
1960s to the present. Arms Control Policy: A Guide to the Issues
examines the history of the major arms control treaties since the
early 1960s. It offers readers a broad understanding of the ways in
which arms control agreements were negotiated and implemented
during the Cold War, the international and national events that
affected treaty negotiation and implementation, and how the arms
control landscape has changed in the war's aftermath. Specifically,
the handbook overviews the obligations contained in bilateral
U.S.-Soviet/Russian and multilateral arms control agreements
covering nuclear and nonnuclear weapons. It also treats such
agreements as the Biological Weapons Convention, the Chemical
Weapons Convention, the Treaty to Ban Land Mines, and the Treaty to
Ban Cluster Munitions. The book concludes with a look at the
current challenges in the implementation of arms control agreements
and the future of arms control. Primary documents and biographical
sketches of key figures support the text Offers a chronology of
arms control agreements from the 1960s to the present Maps show
placement of land mines in Bosnia and elsewhere Photographs depict
the effects of different weapons Includes a glossary of technical
arms control terms and acronyms Provides a bibliography including
significant materials from history, political science, and public
policy
