Preventing chemical weapons as sciences convergeCrowley, Michael J.A., Shang, Lijun, Dando, Malcolm 2018 November 1916 (has links)
Yes / Stark illustrations of the dangers from chemical weapons can be seen in attacks using toxic industrial chemicals and sarin against civilians and combatants in Syria and toxic industrial chemicals in Iraq, as well as more targeted assassination operations in Malaysia and the United Kingdom, employing VX and novichok nerve agents, respectively. Concerns about such malign applications of chemical technology are exacerbated by the unstable international security environment and the changing nature of armed conflict, “where borderlines between war, civil war, large-scale violations of human rights, revolutions and uprisings, insurgencies and terrorism as well as organized crime are blurred” (1). It is thus essential that the global community regularly review the nature and implications of developments in chemistry, and its convergence with the life and associated sciences, and establish appropriate measures to prevent their misuse. With the parties to the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) convening a Review Conference to address such issues beginning 21 November 2018, we highlight important scientific aspects (2)

An assessment of the 2002 National Security Strategy of the United States : continuity and changePrince, Troy Jason January 2009 (has links)
The 2002 National Security Strategy of the US (NSS 2002) appeared to have presented a momentous approach to self-defense. To many, the doctrine of preemptive selfdefense seemed to challenge the legal and political foundations of the post-World War II international order. Some saw in the US stated reliance on preemption a direct threat to the international system embodied in the UN Charter. The prima facie case that the US position was novel and even dangerous appeared persuasive. This thesis attempts to assess the exceptionality of NSS 2002 in its formulation and implications. This question of exceptionality is broadly divided into two sections. The first section deals with internal exceptionality, in terms of means (the deliberation and drafting processes) and ends (the US defense posture). The second section deals with external exceptionality in the broader terms of possible consequences outside the US. Section One begins by establishing the grounds for looking into the formulation of NSS 2002, and provides the background for that Strategy's mandated precursors. After exploring how National Security Strategy documents are conceived and framed, Section One discusses the Strategy as it was published, and examines a sampling of contemporaneous reactions to its publication. Section Two concentrates on the second part of the research question, and utilizes a thematic approach - in terms of the use of force, the international security environment, and international law. Possible consequences of the proposed US response to contemporary security challenges are considered in these three key areas.

An Assessment of the 2002 National Security Strategy of the United States: Continuity and Change.Prince, Troy Jason January 2009 (has links)
The 2002 National Security Strategy of the US (NSS 2002) appeared to have presented
a momentous approach to self-defense. To many, the doctrine of preemptive selfdefense
seemed to challenge the legal and political foundations of the post-World War
II international order. Some saw in the US stated reliance on preemption a direct threat
to the international system embodied in the UN Charter. The prima facie case that the
US position was novel and even dangerous appeared persuasive.
This thesis attempts to assess the exceptionality of NSS 2002 in its formulation and
implications. This question of exceptionality is broadly divided into two sections. The
first section deals with internal exceptionality, in terms of means (the deliberation and
drafting processes) and ends (the US defense posture). The second section deals with
external exceptionality in the broader terms of possible consequences outside the US.
Section One begins by establishing the grounds for looking into the formulation of NSS
2002, and provides the background for that Strategy's mandated precursors. After
exploring how National Security Strategy documents are conceived and framed, Section
One discusses the Strategy as it was published, and examines a sampling of
contemporaneous reactions to its publication. Section Two concentrates on the second
part of the research question, and utilizes a thematic approach ¿ in terms of the use of
force, the international security environment, and international law. Possible
consequences of the proposed US response to contemporary security challenges are
considered in these three key areas.
