Small arms survey 2009 : shadows of war.

Small arms survey 2009 : shadows of war. - Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2009 - 344 p.

This edition focuses on post conflict violence and the promotion of security. The formal ending of conflict all too often does not translate into reductions in violence nor the resolution of problems generated by the conflict - the latter include disease, malnutrition and displacement. These problems are discussed in three chapter length case studies: Aceh, Afghanistan, and southern Lebanon. The book starts with international efforts to control the small arms trade highlighting some control gaps and differences in licensing approaches around the world. The book also looks at UN efforts under the Programme of Action and particularly the control of ammunition.
