This is open access volume of the NL ARMS offers an
interdisciplinary view on the domain of Compliance and Integrity in
International Military Trade (CIIMT), integrating defence
economics, international law, arms export control frameworks and
policies, information management, organizational sciences and
ethics. Although, in academia, and from an interdisciplinary
perspective, CIIMT constitutes a relatively novel research domain,
across private and public defence-related sectors, the subject
evokes high levels of attention and interest, instigating a need
for critical thinking, reflection and creativity to address ensuing
multi-faceted issues and problems. The Faculty of Military Sciences
at the Netherlands Defence Academy extends an in-house MSc
programme on CIIMT, which, by integrating practice-based and
scientific-based knowledge, aims to contribute to this need. The
MSc programme on CIIMT is concerned with exploring, analysing,
understanding, explaining, controlling and improving the military
dimension in international military trade. More particularly, CIIMT
studies managerial questions regarding strategic trade control of
military and dual-use goods and services. CIIMT ties in with the
Netherlands Defence Academy's vision on scientific education,
embedded in the reflective practitioners' paradigm uniting both
management and leadership skills needed to decide and operate in
high-tension and high-risk knowledge intensive environments. The
Faculty of Military Sciences uses the reflective practitioners'
paradigm to refer to critical thinking, reflection and Bildung that
characterize its thinking doers, the so-called Thinking Soldiers,
either at the academic Bachelor's or Master's level. In view of the
complexity of the international trade regarding military and
dual-use goods and services, the rapid evolvement of strategic
trade control and frameworks, and its importance to procurement
processes, defence organizations require innovative thinking doers,
who, based on an in-depth understanding, from an interdisciplinary
perspective can be expected to find - and take responsibility for -
creative solutions to problems. NL ARMS 2021 comprises, amongst
others, contributions from students and lecturers partaking in this
programme. All the editors are affiliated with the Faculty of
Military Sciences of the Netherlands Defence Academy in Breda, The
Netherlands.

Although I seldom write about my own experiences, often I have met
people nearby, as well as in far-away places, whose experiences
parallel my own. The first writing in this book is a poem, a
composition from an ensemble of feelings I have experienced, and
gathered into words which reflect the effect of my having been
touched, or troubled, by the relationships in the planned, or
chance flow of lives. I have made an effort to make clear enough,
the symbolism which I use throughout the poem, as well as in some
of the other writings here. During my travels, I have met many
people; some interesting, others facinating. Everyone has a story.
Indeed, some have many. Occasionally, actually often, I meet one
who wants to tell his or her story. It seems that I attract the
sort who seem to be compelled to share some part of their life
experiences with me. In this book I have included only a few of the
stories I have heard, or have been a witness thereto. I enjoy
"picking" through stories I hear, and pulling out details which I
find interesting, then I make an attempt at enhancing real
experiences to the point where they almost become fiction. Robert
