Export Control and WMD Nonproliferation Law. A Legal Research Guide. 3rd Edition.Luo, WeiItem #: 1007491 ISBN: 9780837743479 Pages: 166 Published: Getzville; William S. Hein & Co., Inc.; Series: LEGAL RESEARCH GUIDES Subjects: TRADE REGULATION Export controls are a primary tool used by the United States to enforce WMD nonproliferation by controlling the flow of dual-use goods, critical materials, and technologies. Economic sanctions can complement export controls by exerting pressure on states or entities that impose economic and security threats to the United States or violate nonproliferation norms, thus maintaining the United States’ domination and reinforcing the global nonproliferation regime. This book consists of four chapters. Chapter One covers U.S. export controls. Chapter Two focuses on sanctions imposed by the United Nations, international nonproliferation cooperation, and the export control laws of major countries that possess WMD technologies. Chapter Three discusses the export control laws of other major countries. Chapter Four provides a wide range of annotated legal research resources on these topics, along with a research strategy for prospective researchers. Because information about international cooperation on WMD nonproliferation and foreign export control laws isn’t widely available in print, the third chapter relies heavily on online resource
