Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides the first comprehensive history of the arms racing phenomenon in modern international politics, drawing both on theoretical approaches and on the latest historical research. Written by an international team of specialists, it is divided into four sections: before 1914; the inter-war years; the Cold War; and extra-European and post-Cold War arms races. Twelve case studies examine land and naval armaments before the First World War; air, land, and naval competition during the 1920s and 1930s; and nuclear as well as conventional weapons since 1945. Armaments policies are placed within the context of technological development, international politics and diplomacy, and social politics and economics. An extended general introduction and conclusion and introductions to each section provide coherence between the specialized chapters and draw out wider implications for policymakers and for political scientists. Arms Races in International Politics addresses two key questions: what causes arms races, and what is the connection between arms races and the outbreak of wars?

Download or read book The Law of Arms Control and the International Non proliferation Regime written by Tom Coppen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear proliferation poses a serious threat to international peace and security. The non-proliferation regime is the body of public international law that aims to counter this threat. It has been a cornerstone of global security for decades. This book analyses its main instruments. The book focuses on the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty, international trade controls and the International Atomic Energy Agency. It describes the internal mechanics of these mechanisms, their development, and their strengths and weaknesses. It shows how they together are the basis of a political-legal order that is more than the sum of its parts, offering new insights on the role of international law in an area dominated by security-driven politics.
Download or read book Strategies of Arms Control written by Stuart Croft and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking analysis, Stuart Croft brings the subject of arms control into the era of complex, multi-polar international relations. He moves beyond the narrow definitions of the phenomenon associated with the Cold War to show how it not only has a long past, but also a clear future. The author begins by tracing the history of agreements between polities over weapons back to ancient times. An understanding of this history allows him to put forward a typology of arms control. It occurs at the end of major conflicts, stabilises balances between states, develops norms of behaviour, manages weapons proliferation, and acts as a tool of international organisations. Stuart Croft examines the evolution of these five qualitatively different strategies, and applies the typology to arms control agreements in the post-Cold War world. This definitive new study will be of interest to students in international relations and security studies, as well as specialists in these disciplines.

Book excerpt: This book shows how peace movements affected US decisions to enter nuclear arms control talks during the Cold War.

Download or read book Arms Control written by Kenneth W. Thompson and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1990 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the world's most influential policy-makers and analysts view arms control as a scientific and technological problem. They tend to ignore the human and qualitative aspects of power. This book shifts the emphasis to elements bound up in the moral, political, and historical lessons of the nuclear age. Non-quantitative factors have been central to studies of national defense and military power since the rise of the modern nation state system. One purpose of this collection of papers is to redirect attention to the moral, political, and historical lessons that the nuclear age presents. What most distinguishes the writings of contributors to this volume is their use of certain well-established principles and concepts long acknowledged in military and foreign policy analysis.
