Governments have a legal obligation to ensure effective control over arms exports and to monitor and supervise the movement of arms to ensure that they do not fall into unauthorized hands.

The purpose of this book is to provide a detailed picture of how governments discharge this responsibility.

Individual chapters describe national efforts to control arms transfers, concentrating on the legal framework that exists to regulate arms exports.

The book includes a discussion of existing multilateral arms transfer control regimes, including the United Nations, the Co-ordinating Committee for East-West Trade Policy (CoCom), the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) and arms embargoes agreed by the Council of Ministers of the European Community.

Every effort has been made to produce a comprehensive compendium, but total success has been prevented by the continued failure of some governments to release adequate information into the public domain.

Reviews for Arms Export Regulations

This ambitious compendium, the first to document and explain (but not evaluate) so many national arms export control schemes, was produced by a research and editorial team headed by Ian Anthony of the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) as part of its Arms Production and Arms Trade Project....SIPRI has done a great service in undertaking this project and publishing its results. Once can only hope that it will expand upon, revise, update and disseminate this information regularly. --Military Review
