Governments have a legal obligation to guarantee effective control over arms exports and to monitor and supervise the movement of arms to ensure they do not fall into unauthorized hands. This book provides a detailed description of how governments discharge this responsibility. Individual chapters describe national efforts to control arms transfer, concentrating on the existing legal framework to regulate arms exports. Multilateral arms transfer control regimes are discussed, including the United Nations, the Co-ordinating Committee for East-West Trade Policy (CoCom), the missile Technology Co

This book is the result of a two-year SIPRI research project. The authors come from 12 countries, including all the Caspian littoral states, and have a unique knowledge of regional affairs. They present authoritative basic data on the true energy resources in the Caspian Sea region, on existing and proposed energy pipelines, on the spread of radical Islam, and on arms acquisitions and military spending by regional governments. They then look at the national political and security interests in the region of the littoral and the main extra-regional countries and of the role of energy resources i

The acquisition by India, officially a non-nuclear nation, of a nuclear attack submarine, attacks on merchant shipping in the Persian Gulf, and recent large and controversial naval arms sales have kept maritime security at the center of global attention. Offering a frank appraisal of the trade in naval weapons systems, this study highlights critical areas in which this trade differs from the sale of land or air systems, and discusses the implications of these differences.

A complement clause is used instead of a noun phrase; for example one can say either I heard [the result] or I heard [that England beat France]. Languages lacking complement clauses employ complementation strategies to achieve similar semantic results. Detailed studies of particular languages, including Akkadian, Israeli, Jarawara, and Pennsylvania German, are framed by R.M. W. Dixon’s introduction, which sets out the range of issues, and his conclusion, which draws together the evidence and the arguments.

Although a realistic appraisal of Soviet defense efforts is crucial to strategic planning and foreign policy analysis, knowledge in this area is limited to incomplete Soviet figures and unsatisfactory U.S. estimates. Using newly available sources of economic, scientific, and technical military information, an international team of defense authorities here reviews the current knowledge of Soviet defense expenditure, and introduces the most recent and original alternative methods of understanding and appraisal. What emerges is a fascinating account of what is perhaps the single most important "

India’s ad hoc Arsenal traces the evolution of the domestic dynamics of Indian defense policy since 1947. Chris Smith provides an in-depth analysis of defense policy from 1947 to 1962, a period often ignored by Indian defense analysts, and an evaluation of the performance of the defense industrial base. The author concludes that India’s defense policy is designed more to achieve a great power status than to acquire security at an affordable price.
