	Lenin on the disarmament slogan
		One of the principal premises advanced, although not always definitely expressed, in favour of disarmament is this: we are opposed to war, to all war in general, and the demand for disarmament, is the most definite, clear and unambiguous expression of this point of view.
		The Kautskyite advocacy of "disarmament", which is addressed to the present governments of the imperialist Great Powers, is the most vulgar opportunism, it is bourgeois pacifism, which actually- in spite of the "good intentions" of the sentimental Kautskyites- serves to distract the workers from the revolutionary struggle.
		Objectively, the "demand" for disarmament corresponds to the opportunist, narrow national line of a labour movement, a line that is restricted by the outlook of a small state.

		The Study defines Disarmament Education as broadly focused on the need to reduce armaments with a view to their complete elimination as a means of reducing both the likelihood and severity of armed conflict.
		Non-Proliferation Education is a significant subset of disarmament education and is oriented towards the prevention of the further proliferation of all weapons, in particular Weapons of Mass Destruction.
		Disarmament and Non-Proliferation (DNP) education and training is described as ‘a life-long and multifaceted process, in which the family, schools, universities, media, community, NGOs, governments, parliaments, and international organisations all participate.

	LCNP.org - Nuclear Disarmament and Non-Proliferation -
		Future prospects for nuclear disarmament will wax and wane with the level of political support it enjoys at the top leadership levels of government as well as the grass roots -- who together must view disarmament as serving the national interest and the broader interest of international peace and security.
		Forging support for such a broad-based coalition must necessarily involve both the media and the educational system, for the message of disarmament must reach a wide audience indeed, one that is diverse both geographically and that is capable of finding new adherents among grandparents and grandchildren alike.
		As slow and frustrating as the cause of nuclear disarmament can be, nothing would advance this goal more than the gradual consolidation and strengthening of a solid political foundation for the development of a new rule of law in this challenging field.

	Disarmament Measures
		Unless the approach to global disarmament changes, what was described by the European Union representative as a "network of disarmament agreements" is likely to become a tangled web of inequity, offering total security to the powerful and advanced states and consigning the small and the weak to total insecurity.
		It should be clarified that the negotiations we are seeking would be designed to elaborate a programme for nuclear disarmament; to identify the measures which constitute parts of the programme, their inter se priorities and the phases and the time-frames within which they would be achieved.
		Until nuclear disarmament is achieved, nuclear weapon states have an obligation to assure non-nuclear states against the use or threat of use of nuclear weapons.

		At the same time, and without prejudice to progress on the disarmament program, they are to seek agreement on those immediate measures that would contribute to the common security of nations and that could facilitate and form part of the total program.
		(e) Transition from one stage of disarmament to the next shall take place as soon as all the measures in the preceding stage have been carried out and effective verification is continuing and as soon as the arrangements that have been agreed to be necessary for the next stage have been instituted.
		In Stage III progressive controlled disarmament and continuously developing principles and procedures of international law would proceed to a point where no state would have the military power to challenge the progressively strengthened U.N. Peace Force and all international disputes would be settled according to the agreed principles of international conduct.

	Disarmament Strategies (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Often arms races are the result in situations where the parties feel that their ability to successfully respond to a military attack is highly limited, and any reduction in their force levels without corresponding reduction in their opponents forces would place them in an extremely vulnerable and dangerous position.
		This fear can prevent the conclusion of successful disarmament agreement, unless some mechanism is created which guarantees that there will be simultaneous and comparable force reductions with no realistic possibility of cheating.
		Disarmament is a major area of study unto itself, and we are not experts in that topic.

	Negotiating the CTBT: India's Security Concerns and Nuclear Disarmament
		It is necessary to recap these initiatives taken by India and their context to emphasize the continuity and consistency in its nuclear and disarmament policies, which had always seen a test-ban treaty as a single element in a time-bound program, with the ultimate goal of the total elimination of nuclear weapons.
		Finally, the Conference on Disarmament, the sole multilateral body for disarmament and arms control negotiations, was supposed to negotiate a treaty to contribute effectively to the process of nuclear disarmament.
		The frustration felt by many non-aligned countries at the developments in the Conference on Disarmament was reflected in their statements, both at the closing session of the Conference and at the resumed session of the U.N. General Assembly which adopted the text.

		They then headed off in open trucks to disarmament camps, with sleeping mats and other belongings pinned under their elbows.
		The start of disarmament comes after an August 18 peace deal, reached one week after warlord-president Charles Taylor fled into exile as rebels laid siege to his mortar-blasted capital.
		National disarmament started with fighters loyal to Taylor, who is now living in Nigeria under that nation's asylum offer.

	News: Sudan, Sudan: Fragile disarmament in the south
		According to a political analyst who requested anonymity, a major reason for the White Army's resistance to the SPLA disarmament programme was the lack of protection for disarmed communities against cattle raiding by their neighbours.
		Some groups of armed youth escaped the disarmament exercise and went on a rampage in the region, attacking previously disarmed, undefended communities in Duk and Ayod and looting the compounds of humanitarian organisations.
		Another important component facilitating the disarmament process in Akobo was the intensive peace talks that took place at the end of June and resulted in improved Lou-Murle relations and a decrease in inter-community tensions.

		The drive for UN-administered global civilian disarmament was conceived and initiated by American globalists.
		Bloomfield Jr., is helping to implement the globalist UN disarmament vision as the Bush administration’s assistant secretary for political-military affairs.
		The Bush administration accepts the proposition that the UN should play a role in governing the worldwide firearms trade; it endorses a UN report that would dictate radical changes in our nation’s laws and eviscerate our Constitution; and it glibly retails the canard that the Second Amendment was intended to protect hunting and sport shooting.

	The Communitarian Network
		To suggest that citizens have a responsibility to try to resolve their differences peacefully and by non-violent means, and if this cannot be achieved to turn to courts and legitimate authorities not to guns, is at the heart of the Communitarian perspective.
		Domestic disarmament entails the removal of arms from private hands and, ultimately, from much of the police force.
		Perhaps the best way to proceed, if nationwide domestic disarmament cannot be achieved immediately, is to introduce it in some major part of the country, say, the Northeast.

	India and Disarmament
		India was obliged to stand apart on the CTBT in 1996 after having been actively engaged in the negotiations for two and a half years precisely because the issues of non-proliferation, global disarmament and India's concerns about her security and strategic autonomy were ignored.
		India's continued commitment to nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation is clear from the voluntary measures announced by India after undertaking a limited series of underground nuclear tests last year.
		At the NAM Summit in Durban, at India's initiative, NAM agreed that an international conference be held, preferably in 1999, with the objective of arriving at an agreement, before the end of this millennium, on a phased programme for the complete elimination of all nuclear weapons.

	What Does Disarmament Look Like?
		On September 12, 2002, President Bush called on the United Nations to live up to its founding purpose and enforce the determination of the international community – expressed in 16 UN Security Council resolutions – that the outlaw Iraqi regime be disarmed of its weapons of mass destruction.
		The regime fully cooperates with international efforts to implement and verify disarmament; its behavior is transparent, not secretive.
		Instead of a high-level commitment to disarm, Iraq’s concealment efforts are led by Saddam’s son Qusay. The inspectors are labeled spies and treated as the enemy, not as a partner in disarmament.

	LCNP.org - Nuclear Disarmament and Non-Proliferation - 1984 Revisited - Rearmament is Disarmament?
		Nuclear disarmament is a part of general and complete disarmament, and its achievement will assist and preceed the achievement of general and complete disarmament, not the other way around.
		Similarly the achievement of nuclear disarmament will contribute tremendously to global security, not only as a consequence of the reduced threat resulting from the elimination of nuclear weapons, but also from the adoption of confidence building and security measures which will inevitably be adopted as part of a nuclear disarmament regime.
		Thus, even if, as some NWS assert, nuclear disarmament is conditional on progress towards general and complete disarmament and on an improvement in international security, this is no reason not to commence nuclear disarmament negotiations, but rather an additional reason to start such negotiations.

	Disarmament Commission
		The First Special Session on Disarmament (known as SSOD1) occured at a time when the psychotic nature of the nuclear and conventional arms race was apparent even to its principle actors.
		The Disarmament Commission was created as a deliberative body, with the function of considering and making recommendations on various problems in the field of disarmament and of following up on the relevant decisions and recommendations of the special session.
		New Under-Secretary General for Disarmament Affairs Nobuaki Tanaka told the Commission they had a responsibility to provide fresh momentum by using new and creative thinking instead of allowing posturing to get in the way of results.

		This word "disarmament" carries, for some people, uncomfortable echoes of the Cold War and decades past.
		But with all kinds of nuclear and conventional weapons more widely available and more deadly than ever, disarmament is precisely what we need: disarmament in conflicts between nations, and inner disarmament within ourselves, in our families, workplaces, and communities.
		Thoroughgoing disarmament is the way to dismantle war and cultivate peace.

	UNSCOM Final Compendium - Disarmament Report
		A complete and detailed record of the Commission's disarmament work in Iraq would be considerably more voluminous than the three weapons related Annexes to this report.
		First, Iraq's current claims that; it has fulfilled all of its disarmament obligations in each weapons area; ceased concealment policies and actions; and, that it has neither proscribed weapons nor the ability to make them are not able to be verified.
		Finally, the implications of not achieving a credible resolution of the priority disarmament issues needs to be considered, both with respect to the assessment of Iraq's compliance, as well as its implications for the system of ongoing monitoring and verification.
