The Arms Control Collection at the University of Illinois Library

Abstract

Arms control, international security, and peace are topics of growing concern among scholars. This concern is a reaction to the heightened international tensions during the past decade. Researchers are aware that their work might contribute to an understanding of the sources of conflict, and to the peaceful resolution of international issues. Interest in the field is rapidly expanding both in the United States and abroad, but there has been little agreement on the direction research should take. Research institutes, think‐tanks, and university programs around the world are devoting an increasing amount of time to the study of arms control, international security, and peace.
