Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This excerpt from the “masterful, timely, data-driven” study of the gun control debate examines the potential of stronger purchasing laws (Choice). As the debate on gun control continues, evidence-based research is needed to answer a crucial question: How do we reduce gun violence? One of the biggest gun policy reforms under consideration is the regulation of firearm sales and stopping the diversion of guns to criminals. This selection from the major anthology of studies Reducing Gun Violence in America presents compelling evidence that stronger purchasing laws and better enforcement of these laws result in lower gun violence. Additional material for this edition includes an introduction by Michael R. Bloomberg and Consensus Recommendations for Reforms to Federal Gun Policies from the Johns Hopkins University.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years proposals for gun control and the ownership of firearms have been among the most contentious issues in American politics. For public authorities to make reasonable decisions on these matters, they must take into account facts about the relationship between guns and violence as well as conflicting constitutional claims and divided public opinion. In performing these tasks, legislators need adequate data and research to judge both the effects of firearms on violence and the effects of different violence control policies. Readers of the research literature on firearms may sometimes find themselves unable to distinguish scholarship from advocacy. Given the importance of this issue, there is a pressing need for a clear and unbiased assessment of the existing portfolio of data and research. Firearms and Violence uses conventional standards of science to examine three major themes - firearms and violence, the quality of research, and the quality of data available. The book assesses the strengths and limitations of current databases, examining current research studies on firearm use and the efforts to reduce unjustified firearm use and suggests ways in which they can be improved.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the results of an international workshop on Modelling and Analysis of Arms Control Problems held in Spitzingsee near Munich in October 1985 under the joint sponsorship of NATO's Scientific Affairs Division and the Volkswagen Foundation. The idea for this workshop evolved in 1983, as a consequence of discussions in the annual Systems Science Seminar at the Computer Science Department of the Federal Armed Forces University ~1unich on the topic of Quantitative Assessment in Arms Control 1) • There was wide agreement among the contribu tors to that seminar and its participants that those efforts to assess the potential contributions of systems and decision sciences, as well as systems analysis and"mathematical modelling, to arms control issues should be ex panded and a forum should be provided for this activity. It was further agreed that such a forum should include political scientists and policy analysts working in the area of arms control.

Book excerpt: Like many other nations, the United States was born of war. The freedom sought by our founding fathers was not free; it was paid in patriot blood during the American Revolution. No matter the reason-the preservation of democracy, liberation of the oppressed, or revolution-the United States has been no stranger to the battlefield. Through deserts, jungles, and grassy plains; in brick buildings, straw huts, and log cabins; by mountains, ditches, and the oceans, the infantry soldier has relied on one key tool to accomplish the mission: his weapon. Indeed, among the many characteristics of war, the infantry rifle has remained a critical battle component throughout time. The purpose of this study is to provide an analysis of the U.S. military's usage of various small arms and their associated cartridges from WWII to current day. The primary objective centers on an analysis of the driving factors and decisions used in military cartridge selection and development. The expected product will be a reference document to aid in the decision-making process for future small arms cartridge/weapon selection and development. Chapter I: This chapter provides general information, objectives, scope, methodology, benefits, and the organization of the study. Chapter II: This chapter establishes a baseline of terms used in this study. This chapter provides a brief technical background of projectiles, cartridges, and U.S. small arms types. The terms and concepts in this chapter are also used in the analysis portions of subsequent chapters. Chapter III: This chapter is separated into three sections and briefly describes the history of the U.S. Service Rifle from WWII to Afghanistan. The first discusses infantry weapons and ammunition during the Second World War as well as during the Korean War. The first segment focuses on the impact made by the M1 rifle. The second segment discusses infantry weapons and ammunition during the Vietnam War. The second segment focuses on the impact made by the M16 and M14 rifles. The third segment discusses infantry weapons and ammunition during the Persian Gulf War and the war in Afghanistan. The third segment focuses on the impact made by the M4 carbine. Chapter IV: This chapter will compare and contrast the Infantry weapon/cartridge capabilities against the actual battlefield requirements during the time periods discussed in Chapter III. The comprehensive analysis seeks to reveal whether or not the U.S. Army has provided its infantry with the optimum cartridge and weapon throughout history. Chapter V: This chapter provides an opportunity to draw conclusions and afford options for improved decision making during the U.S. Army's evolution of the infantry weapon and ammunition programs.
