Global Arms Production
Why do states collaborate in the production of advanced weaponry? Under what conditions do such collaborative arrangements succeed? What are the implications of armaments collaboration for the international economic and security environments? Arms collaboration is not a new phenomenon, but there is increasing debate-both in the United States and abroad-over the associated costs and benefits. Critics charge that collaborative projects result in technology give-aways, the creation of defense-industrial competitors, and the loss of domestic jobs. Supporters argue that the very same projects strengthen alliance relations, provide access to new technology, and result in arms sales which might otherwise have been lost to foreign competitors. In Global Arms Production these issues are addressed by distinguished contributors such as Ethan B. Kapstein, Jacques S. Gansler, William Keller, Joel L. Johnson, Jack Nun, Robert H. Trice, C. Michael Farr, Grant T. Hammond and Stanley Sienkiewicz. Co-published with the Center for International Affairs of Harvard University.

The book is structured around three case studies of Johnson’s foreign policy decision making. The first study examines economic and political development. It explores the way Johnson handled the provision of economic and food assistance to India during a crisis in India’s food policies. This analysis provides lessons not only for dealing with African famine in later years but also for assisting Eastern Europe and the f...
