NGOs and the arms trade -- NGOs strategies and the disciplining of global civil society -- Arming the North: Transatlantic and European military production and trade -- Disciplining the South: development and human rights concerns in the arms trade -- Disarming the South: small arms and conflict -- NGOs, global civil society and the world military order.
Summary Taking Aim at the Arms Trade takes a critical look at the ways in which NGOs portray the arms trade as a problem of international politics and the strategies they use to effect change. Anna Stavrianakis exposes the tensions inherent in NGOs' engagement with the arms trade and argues for a re-examination of dominant assumptions about NGOs as global civil society actors.
