In the preface SIPRI Director Alyson Bailes states that themes in this edition include the challenges of devising policies and restraints for a security environment featuring non-state and transnational forces; another theme is the concept of risk to human life in the broadest sense. Main sections are: Part I covers security and conflicts in 2006 including peacekeeping missions, democratic accountability of intelligence services, energy and security. Part II military spending and armaments includes analysing risk, arms spending, production, and transfers. Part III Non-proliferation and arms control includes features on control of civil use materials, and control of MANPADS. As always the book contains extensive statistical information on the military expenditure, the arms trade, and weapons inventories. | ||
