This book was released on 1983 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is intended to give a purely descriptive, quantitative overview of the proposals which were incorporated into the COMPENDIUM OF ARMS CONTROL VERIFICATION PROPOSALS (Second Edition), ORAE Report No. R81, March 1982 (also CD/275, April 1982). By outlining general historical patterns for the debate on the verification issue, fruitful routes for future negotiations may be suggested. The descriptive analysis of the verification debate may also have more general relevance by providing a miniature representation of the course of arms control negotiations at a broader level.

Book excerpt: Originally published in 1985, the level of anxiety and suspicion between the USA and the USSR had rarely been higher. Many advocates of arms control believed that effective verification would reduce tensions and lessen the risk of war. This book analyses the two main issues of verification. One is technological: what are the present capabilities of various verification techniques and what is their potential? The devices and methods currently employed by the two major nuclear powers and by international organizations to monitor the compliance of states with arms control or disarmament treaties are examined. The second issue is political: how do US and Soviet approaches compare, what are the roles of domestic and bureaucratic politics, and on what criteria can a workable standard of adequacy be based? In short, how much is enough? Although the study concludes that a number of significant arms control measures can already be adequately verified, modern weapons are becoming more mobile and it is becoming easier to conceal them. There is a danger that the ability to hide weapons will outstrip the ability to find them. Verification cannot promise to detect all violations; a workable standard of adequacy in verification must derive from the ability to detect militarily significant violations.

This book was released on 1991 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research project on which this book is based was undertaken in order to evaluate the verification procedures and practices in existing arms limitation and disarmament agreements. It is argued that if the international community is to devise new verification arrangements for the future it must do so on the basis of past experience. This book contains an analysis of agreements and instruments concluded over a period of sixty years. Agreements and treaties which are analysed include the Geneva Protocol on Chemical and Biological methods of Warfare (1925); the Antarctic Treaty (1959); the Nuclear Test Limitation Treaties of 1963, 1974, 1976 and 1990; the Outer Space and Moon Treaties of 1967 and 1979; the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (1968); the Sea-Bed Treaty (1971); the Convention on Biological Weapons of Anti-Ballistic Missile Systems (1971); SALT 1 and SALT II (1972 and 1979), the Conventional Weapon Convention of 1981 and the INF Treaty (1987).
