Rese�a del editor:

The book endevours to apply the social science concept of trust to the post-World War II history of arms control and United Nations peacekeeping. In doing so the book brings together two specialized fields that are ordinarily treated separately, namely, peacekeeping and arms control. The result is an analysis of the emergence of an environment of institutionalized trust that holds promise of reducing the possibility of major wars and promoting non-violent political competiton on a global scale. While introducing the reader to the principal factors in the arms race and the major challenges to peacekeepers, the book describes the specific institutional developments that promote confidence and trust among former and prospective adversaries. Explores current military functional dilemmas of how basic war winning objectives can be reconciled to new peacekeeping and humanitarian duties.

Rese�a del editor:

Focusing on the leaders of the defence establishment of the United States and the increasingly confronted dilemmas of their mission requirements, this text asks: are they war-makers, trained to overwhelm or destroy any enemy of the nation?; or are they peacekeepers, trained to use force sparingly?; or are they deliverers of humanitarian aid, trained to act as angels of mercy?; or are they all three? As war-making and peacekeeping merge, this introductory book aims to provide the history and context of these dilemmas. Its main concern is the role of trust in responding to them, the subjective and objective aspects of the circumstances of "security" as well as with the relationship between political distrust and arms races.
