| Summary/Abstract |
The Convention on Cluster Munitions (CCM) is a stunning achievement. It sets a new international legal form and enshrines a comprehensive package of weapon-specific measures to ban cluster munitions that endanger civilians, clear contaminated land and help vitims. By adopting a humanitarian disarmament approach, the Oslo process also sends a powerful signal that progress is still possible on arms control-related priorities of international concern despite considerable difficulties in recent years.
