The publication consists of the edited transcripts of four discussions that took place at the United Nations Headquarters in April and October 2007, which were organized by the NGO Committee on Disarmament, Peace and Security, in cooperation with the UN Office for Disarmament Affairs. The focal issue of the three of the discussions was the feasibility of verification of a possible fissile material treaty and of the Biological Weapons Conventions. The value of a code of conduct for outer space was the subject of the fourth discussion.--Publisher's description.

Since 1815 democratic states have emerged victorious from most wars, leading many scholars to conclude that democracies are better equipped to triumph in armed conflict with autocratic and other non-representative governments.Political scientist Michael C. Desch argues that the evidence and logic of that supposition, which he terms “democratic triumphalism,” are as flawed as the arguments for the long-held and opposite belief that democracies are inherently disadvantaged in international relations. Through comprehensive statistical analysis, a thorough review of two millennia of international relations thought, and in-depth case studies of modern-era military conflicts, Desch finds that the problems that persist in prosecuting wars―from building up and maintaining public support to holding the military and foreign policy elites in check―remain constant regardless of any given state’s form of government. In assessing the record, he finds that military effectiveness is almost wholly reliant on the material assets that a state possesses and is able to mobilize.Power and Military Effectiveness is an instructive reassessment of the increasingly popular belief that military success is one of democracy’s many virtues. International relations scholars, policy makers, and military minds will be well served by its lessons.Read less
