June 14, 2012

Jill R. Junnola and Michael Krepon, eds.

This collection of essays examines how CBMs have fared in three very different regions- South Asia, the Middle East, and the Southern Cone of Latin America. These regions have implemented specific “tools” from the CBM toolbox with varying degrees of success. Each of these essays clarifies how prevailing political conditions can either facilitate or confound confidence-building efforts. Domestic factors play a prominent role in determining the success or failure of CBMs.
