Oxford University Press, 1992 - Weapons industry - 240 pages
Profound changes are occurring in the structure of arms production in Western Europe. This book presents detailed analyses for all arms producing countries in Western Europe. In addition to describing recent changes, the authors speculate on the implications of these for the balance of power in Western Europe, the relations between Western Europe and the United States, arms exports to the Third World, and problems of converting military production to civilian uses.
