Verification in an Age of Insecurity: The Future of Arms Control Compliance
 |
| Anteprima |
Verification
in an Age of Insecurity takes the reader into some of the most urgent
arms control issues facing the world community, including the nuclear
activities of rogue states and threats from sophisticated non-state
actors. In the book, national security expert Philip D. O'Neill, Jr.
identifies and addresses issues from the resuscitated disarmament
agenda, from the comprehensive test ban to fissile material and
biological weapons. O'Neill examines the need for shifts in verification
standards and policy suitable for our volatile era and beyond it. He
surveys recent history to show how established verification procedures
fail to produce the certainty necessary to meet today's threats.
Verification in an Age of Insecurity goes beyond a discussion of rogue
states like North Korea to offer suggestions on how best to bring
compliance policy up to date with modern threats.
