This the nineth edition of the Unesco Yearbook focuses on the
effects of the arms race. The first section, a product of research
undertaken at the International Peace Research Institute in Oslo,
Norway (PRIO), examines the impact of armaments on areas of special
concern to Unesco: education, science and technology, and culture
and communication. The second section deals with the effects of the
arms race, the arms trade, and technology transfer in developing
countries, where armaments are proliferating at a higher rate than
in industrially advanced countries. The third section examines the
impact of the arms race on national reconstruction in developing
countries. The fourth section analyzes the stance the United
Nations has taken toward disarmament since its creation, from the
concept of general and complete disarmament to a comprehensive
program of step-by-step disarmament. Finally, as in previous
yearbooks, the final section is a brief summary of Unesco
activities in the fields of peace and disarmament and regional
developments around the world.
