N2  - Study of small arms that covers their spread, use, and impact on societies around the world. Also considers measures taken to control guns both at national and international levels. Concludes that the United States bears a good share of responsibility for the present situation because it is the largest small arms manufacturer in the world and has among the weakest gun control laws. Calls for the US to improve its own gun laws and to participate fully in international small arms control arrangements
