Summary
  • Since 1889, The American Academy of Political and Social Science has served as a forum for the free exchange of ideas among the well informed and intellectually curious. In this era of specialization, few scholarly periodicals cover the scope of societies and politics like The ANNALS. Each volume is guest edited by outstanding scholars and experts in the topics studied and presents more than 200 pages of timely, in-depth research on a significant topic of concern-- http://ann.sagepub.com.
  • "The contributions presented here will, we hope, provide a panoramic perspective on most of the important aspects of arms transfers. Some, such as those on supplier markets or on arms control, represent the latest thinking and information on subjects that have long been the focus of attention in the arms trade literature. Others, such as the contributions on financing and intelligence, represent initial attempts at opening up new areas of inquiry" --Preface.
