Dismantlement and Destruction of Chemical, Nuclear and Conventional Weapons
Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop, Bonn, Germany, 19-21 May 1996
The safe destruction and dismantling of chemical, nuclear and conventional weapons is of fundamental importance to the security of all countries represented in this volume. Expertise in the field is not confined to one country or organisation: all can benefit from each other. There is an ever present danger of proliferation of weapons of mass destruction: approximately two dozen countries have ongoing programmes to develop or acquire such weapons, and many are also gaining the capability to build air-surface delivery systems. But much can be done to prevent proliferation by reducing leakage of materials and know-how and by solving the problems of the destruction of surplus weapons systems, which has now come to be a key issue. This book is thus a key book: one of the keys to a more peaceful, more stable world.
