Synopsis

Attitudes towards arms control have undergone a shift from those that prevailed in the interwar period. In the 1920s and 1930s, several nations, particularly the United States, Britain, and Japan, met to negotiate limits to the arms race. Often they approached such negotiations as allies or foes of particular nations and much was written about the alignment and realignment of nations. This work examines the alliances that have affected the result of negotiations in the Cold War and post-Cold War era.
