| Synopsis: |
This two-volume comprehensive guide is organized around the assumption that national and international security and arms control studies are interdisciplinary in nature. Volume 2 clarifies and defines selected current issues and problems from an international perspective. The chapters look at the scope of the emerging field of security and arms control studies as a serious field of systematic inquiry; they serve as a critical review and evaluation of the most important literature within each sub-field. The chapters identify major problems, key concepts, methods, disciplinary approaches, intellectual styles, and data sources. "Security and Arms Control, Volume 2" is organized by sub-field. First, contending contemporary perspectives on the international system itself as the source of conflict and war are presented. The various facets of nuclear deterrence, including implications for the possible use of nuclear weapons, follow. The focus then shifts to conventional military power in the system, including arms transfers. The incidence of subconventional or low-intensity conflicts, including the practice of and possible responses to terrorism, is analyzed. The book concludes with strategic arms control, nuclear proliferation, and the study of crisis decision making. "Security and Arms Control, Volume 2" can be used as a text as well as serving as a valuable guide to the study of international and national security and arms control. Interested students and policy makers will find valuable material for their studies and research. |
