Arms procurement and the Russian defense industry: challenges up to 2020 / Oxenstierna, Susanne; Westerlund, Fredrik   Journal Article
Westerlund, Fredrik Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract The Russian government has launched a new state armament program for the period 2011-2020 in a decisive effort to bring the Russian Armed Forces into the 21st century. This article investigates the prerequisites for the successful fulfillment of this program and assesses the industry's ability to meet the program's demands. The main findings are that the costs of the program are unrealistically high and that deficiencies in the procurement system and in the technologies and performance of the industry present serious challenges and obstacles that will hinder the fulfillment of the program.

Defense sector, armaments-labor ratio and national security / Tanigaki, Kazunori   Journal Article
Tanigaki, Kazunori Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2006.
Summary/Abstract This paper analyzes a national defense economy in which the army reduces the risk of attack and damage. The results show that it is important how countries or people feel about damage to military personnel, citizens and wealth from attack. The feeling determines the optimal levels of arms procurement and army personnel. It also affects international trade. It is found that labor (armaments) input into the military sector is not always decreased following an increase of wage (armaments price). The model suggests that conscription affects army expenditure and international trade.

Netherlands: procurement without debate / Everts, Philip   Journal Article
Everts, Philip Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2005.
Summary/Abstract The issue of theatre-range missile defence is approached by the Netherlands' government primarily as an issue of 'technical' adaptation of defensive capabilities against potential or already existing threats, made possible by new technologies. This approach is generally shared by parties and interest groups across the political spectrum, and this helps to explain why the issue is not controversial beyond the small circle of those who are involved in arms acquisition processes and setting priorities within the available budgets. As long as decisions in this area can be successfully framed as merely a consequence of established general policies, they can also be depoliticized. The interest of the military in this area stems from the strong desire to remain a reliable junior partner of the United States, and the decision to be one of the few countries in Europe to acquire Patriot PAC-3 systems should be seen in this light.

New U.S. arms policy calls for 'restraint' / Morley, Jefferson   Journal Article
Morley, Jefferson Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract The Obama administration in January announced a new policy on conventional arms transfers that emphasizes the need for restraint in considering transfers that might endanger regional security or human rights. President Barack Obama declared in a Jan. 15 directive that the new policy "supports transfers that meet legitimate security requirements of our allies and partners in support of our national security and foreign policy interests" and "promotes restraint" in those "that may be destabilizing or dangerous to international peace and security." The policy, which replaces a 1995 directive issued by President Bill Clinton, follows the administration's announcement last October that it was loosening rules on the sale of U.S.-made weapons overseas. The reforms announced last fall are part of an effort that the administration says will tighten controls on the sale of the most dangerous arms while enhancing commerce in defense material and services that are not threatening.

Stopping illicit procurement: lessons from global finance / Kurzrok, Andrew; Hund, Gretchen   Journal Article

0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract A Hollywood, Florida, conference of specialists in preventing, detecting, and responding to money laundering might not seem to be the most likely spot for the next innovation in nuclear nonproliferation policymaking. Yet, a March speech by Jennifer Shasky Calvery, director of the Department of the Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), suggested an approach that regulators charged with stopping the proliferation of nuclear weapons would do well to study. Shasky Calvery stated that "FinCEN needs to find ways for more dynamic, real-time information sharing, both by and between financial institutions, and with FinCEN and law enforcement."[1] The information to which she was referring is transaction data related to money laundering that currently reside within banks, casinos, credit card processing companies, and many other types of financial businesses. Export control regulators could apply Shasky Calvery's approach to their own mission. In the nonproliferation context, FinCEN's anti-money laundering data would be analogous to the inquiries that potential buyers of dual-use commodities place over the phone or on commercial websites. Dual-use commodities have legitimate civilian applications, but can also be used to support nuclear weapons development. If a request appears suspicious, most firms will decline the request. Unlike their counterparts in the financial sector, however, export control regulators and private business have few tools with which to gather and disseminate this critical information about the networks illicitly seeking strategic commodities. Taking a page from the anti-money laundering playbook may help stop proliferation procurement.
