Reluctant champions: Truman, Eisenhower, Bush, and Clinton : U.S. presidential policy and strategic export controls
Trade, export controls, and non‐proliferation in the Asia‐Pacific region
Stemming the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) — nuclear, biological, and chemical — and the missiles to deliver them comprises a crucial element in contemporary security policies. Many observers believe the utility of export controls in this effort is diminishing. While the authors believe that controls on the transfer of military and dual‐use items remain relatively effective and efficient compared to the alternative policy too…
New strategies for the nuclear suppliers group (NSG)
Membership in the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) has grown rapidly in the past decade. If continued, this rate of growth threatens to condemn the NSG to years of stalemate and stagnation as it includes states with significantly divergent interests. In contrast, cooperation between NSG members and nonmember states could increase substantially without threatening the workings of the NSG itself. The authors argue that keeping the NSG as an effective …
Cocom Is Dead, Long Live Cocom: Persistence and Change in Multilateral Security Institutions
Members of the Co-ordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Controls (COCOM) agreed to disband this ‘economic arm of NATO’ as of March 1994. Despite the demise of COCOM, member states agreed to continue applying their existing export control policies and, in December 1995, replaced COCOM with the Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods and Technologies. Such actions are in contrast to conventional view…
The (IM)Morality of international governmental organizations
In this article, the authors apply standard population statistics to assess the durability of conventional international governmental organizations (IGOs) in the international system for the years 1865--1989. Following a brief discussion of IGOs and why institutions tend to persist (with examples from the literature on international relations, the U.S. bureaucracy, and international business), the authors examine infant mortality, average age at …
The political economy of arms exports in post-communist societies: The cases of Poland and the CSFR
At its peak in the late 198Os, the global arms trade amounted to over US%50 billion per year.2 As the Persian Gulf War revealed, the highly competitive arms market and liberal arms trade policies meant that most governments permitted arms exports to practically any buyer that could afford the purchase price.” The collapse of communism in the central and eastern European countries (CEECs) drastically reordered the demand for arms. For the CEECs, t…
British Hegemony and Militarized Interstate Disputes, 1815-1939
In this paper, we examine some competing explanations of the Pax Britannia, the long era of relative peace that marks the 19th century. We test hypotheses derived from balance of power theory and from theories of hegemonic order (including the hegemonic stability theory of Gilpin, the political long-cycle theory of Modelski, Thompson and their associates, world systems theory, and the economic long-cycle theory of Kondratieff) regarding the occur…
Nonproliferation in the 1990s: Enhancing International Cooperation on Export Controls
Multilateral Cooperation and Nuclear Nonproliferation
Decision dynamics of technology transfer to the USSR
