The first historical study of export control regulations as a tool
for the sharing and withholding of knowledge. In this
groundbreaking book, Mario Daniels and John Krige set out to show
the enormous political relevance that export control regulations
have had for American debates about national security, foreign
policy, and trade policy since 1945. Indeed, they argue that from
the 1940s to today the issue of how to control the transnational
movement of information has been central to the thinking and
actions of the guardians of the American national security state.
The expansion of control over knowledge and know-how is apparent
from the increasingly systematic inclusion of universities and
research institutions into a system that in the 1950s and 1960s
mainly targeted business activities. As this book vividly reveals,
classification was not the only-and not even the most
important-regulatory instrument that came into being in the postwar
era.
