Arms Control and National Security: An Introduction

Gerard C. Smith

4.9/5 (31386 ratings)

Description:The Arms Control Association (ACA) became increasingly aware in recent years of the need for a comprehensive survey of the role of arms control in US security. The existing literature tended to be either too general or too specialized for the reader seeking a concise but serious summary of specific arms control goals, proposals, and issues. To fill this gap, ACA prepared this book; it offers the student and concerned citizen an overview of the current arms control scene and the more-knowledgeable practitioner a convenient reference for specific arms control topics. Events up to the beginning of the Bush administration are converse setting the stage for the policy debates and decisions President Bush will have to face in the coming years. The remarkable improvement in US-Soviet relations promises to make the next few years a period of great opportunity for substantial progress in nearly every area of arms control. Agreements for deep reductions in the strategic nuclear arsenals of the superpowers and for massive reductions in the conventional forces deployed in Europe now appear within the grasp of the Bush administration. Part I of this book provides a conceptual and historical overview of arms control and its role in US national security policy. Part II is devoted to current topics on the arms control agenda, including the major negotiations on strategic offensive and defensive weapons, nuclear testing, nuclear proliferation, and other military threats posed by conventional, chemical, and biological weapons.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
