Wirtz1 aGlobalization and WMD Proliferation : Terrorism, transnational networks, and international security /cEdited by James A. Russell  aNew York :bRoutledge,c2008  axii, 170 p. :b: illus. ;c24 cm  aIndeks : p. 166 - 170  aThis edited volume explores the relationship between the accelerating process of globalization and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD), which is increasingly seen as the pre-eminent threat to international security. The proliferation of WMD has traditionally been seen as a function of the "security dilemma" in the state-based international system. But the advent of the nuclear supply network pieced together by the Pakistani scientist A.Q. Khan represented a departure from this model, involving a variety of organizations not directly connected to a state. This volume assembles an International group of experts in order to assess the relationship between proliferation and globalization to ascertain how contemporary communication, transportation, and financial networks are facilitating or constraining trade in dangerous contrabrand. This book ultimately seeks to determine whether globalization is fundamentally alterting the nature of the proliferation problem, particularly the threat that WMD might fall into the hands of terrorists. It will be of much interest to students of nuclear proliferation, international security, and terrorism. 4aInternational security terrorism  a10233/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10234/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10234/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10233/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10233/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10234/MKRI-P/XI-2008
