Essays on Arms Control and National Security
Author: Bernard F. Halloran
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Determination (Strategy)
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
These essays, collected to commemorate the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency's 25th anniversary, span not only ACDA's lifetime, but the four decades of the nuclear era. The articles provide a sampling of the arms-control-related speculation and controversy that has existed during those years. Since many of the authors are either current members of the U.S. Government or have strongly influenced its policy over the years, these essays on the formulation of U.S. arms control and national security policies have almost assumed the status of classics. The authors represented include Fred Ikle, Henry Rowen, Paul Nitze, George Kennan, Robert McNamara, Thomas Schelling, Albert Wohlstetter, and James Schlesinger. S/N 044-000-02164-1: $12.00.

Arms Control And Defense Postures In The 1980s
Author: Richard Burt
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 042972439X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 325
Book Description
The current standstill in U.S.-Soviet arms limitation negotiations has raised a number of questions about the effectiveness of arms limitation treaties, whether it is possible to negotiate an arms control agreement that would actually cut back on U.S. and Soviet strategic arsenals, and how such an arms reduction could be accomplished. The authors of this book explore the problems of arms competition in the 1980s and stress the need for a complete reassessment of U.S. security interests lest negotiations become curiously disconnected from defense policy. To protect national interests, they assert, future arms limitation talks must allow for effective unilateral response to new classes of military problems and technologies. Each contributor addresses a specific area of arms negotiations, identifying various options, outlining potential outcomes, and discussing whether the talks actually are focusing on the right military issues. The book also provides an overview of previous U.S. arms limitation strategies and describes the Soviet approach to integrating national security with arms control policies._

Milestones in Strategic Arms Control, 1945-2000 United States Air Force Roles and Outcomes
Author: James M Smith
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781079764413
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
This compilation of 10 articles by frequently published arms-control experts captures the story of a young Air Force's initial (and limited) impact on arms-control negotiations and outcomes. It documents a growing awareness by the service that it was better to help craft the US position than merely to be a passive recipient. This book also highlights the lesson the Air Force belatedly learned in the early days of arms control: that it has to plan and budget for treaty implementation as aggressively as it works to protect its equities during treaty negotiations. When a treaty goes into effect, the Air Force needs to be ready to execute its responsibilities to ensure complete and timely treaty compliance. Though the Air Force did not seize a prominent role in the early days of post-war arms control, it made up for it quickly and forcefully as it gained a fuller appreciation of what was at stake.

Arms and Artificial Intelligence
Author: Stockholm International Peace Research Institute
Publisher: Stockholm International Peace Research Institute
ISBN: 9780198291220
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
The impact of information technology in the field of military decision making is superficially less visible than that of a number of other weapon developments, though its importance has grown steadily since the beginning of the 1980s. Owing to its potential role in modern weapon systems and the prospect of its inclusion as an essential ingredient in many military projects such as the Strategic Defence Initiative, it has become the focus of special interest and efforts. This book is the first attempt to present a broad overview of the prospects for information technology in general, and machine intelligence in particular, in the context of international security. The dangers and promises of weapon and arms control applications of computers and artificial intelligence to decision-making processes are analysed in a technical, strategic, and political perspective by experts from six different countries. In an introductory chapter, Allan Din presents a generic overview of artificial intelligence and its prospects. Thirteen contributors then discuss the conceptual and technical framework of artificial intelligence, analyse implications for weapon systems and strategy, and discuss possible applications to arms control verification and modelling.

Arms Control And International Security
Author: Roman Kolkowicz
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429725566
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
Designed to introduce the reader to the critical issues of arms control and international security in the 1980s, this collection of provocative and challenging articles encourages a rethinking of conventional wisdom on strategic policy. The authors succinctly convey the tensions existing between those who would eliminate the weapons on which strategic deterrence has rested and those who see the Soviet nuclear buildup as a challenge that must be met with increased armaments. They reflect, as well, on the conceptual tension between eliminating nuclear weapons and answering the question of how defense can be managed in the nuclear era. Their contributions are at times compelling, at times frustrating, but at all times informative and of critical importance.
