Yet the strengths and limitations of these nonproliferation and arms control mechanisms remain unclear. How should these regimes best be implemented? What are the technological, political, and other limitations to these tools? What technologies and other innovations should be utilized to make these regimes most effective? How should recent developments, such as the 2015 Iran nuclear deal or Syria's declared renunciation and actual use of its chemical weapons, influence their architecture? The Politics of Weapons Inspections examines the successes, failures, and lessons that can be learned from WMD monitoring and verification regimes in order to help determine how best to maintain and strengthen these regimes in the future. In addition to examining these regimes' technological, political, and legal contexts, Nathan E. Busch and Joseph F. Pilat reevaluate the track record of monitoring and verification in the historical cases of South Africa, Libya, and Iraq; assess the prospects of using these mechanisms in verifying arms control and disarmament; and apply the lessons learned from these cases to contemporary controversies over suspected or confirmed programs in North Korea, Iran, and Syria. Finally, they provide a forward-looking set of policy recommendations for the future. 606 $aWeapons of mass destruction 606 $aNuclear arms control$xVerification 606 $aChemical arms control$xVerification 606 $aBiological arms control$xVerification 606 $aDisarmament$xOn-site inspection 615 0$aWeapons of mass destruction. 615 0$aNuclear arms control$xVerification. 615 0$aChemical arms control$xVerification. 615 0$aBiological arms control$xVerification. 615 0$aDisarmament$xOn-site inspection. 676 $a327.1/745 700 $aBusch$b Nathan E.$f1971-$01208758 702 $aPilat$b Joseph F. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154682903321 996 $aThe politics of weapons inspections$92788870 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01810oam 2200469I 450 001 9910703445903321 005 20130813072058.0 035 $a(CKB)5470000002431246 035 $a(OCoLC)848875499 035 $a(EXLCZ)995470000002431246 100 $a20130617d2013 ua 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn||||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aNigerian unity $ein the balance /$fGerald McLoughlin, Clarence J.

The immediate catalyst of the events that Agnes Nilufer Kefeli chronicles in Becoming Muslim in Imperial Russia was the collective turn to Islam by many of the region's Krashens, the Muslim and animist Tatars who converted to Russian Orthodoxy between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries.The traditional view holds that the apostates had really been Muslim all along or that their conversions had been forced by the state or undertaken voluntarily as a matter of convenience. In Kefeli's view, this argument vastly oversimplifies the complexity of a region where many participated in the religious cultures of both Islam and Orthodox Christianity and where a vibrant Krashen community has survived to the present. By analyzing Russian, Eurasian, and Central Asian ethnographic, administrative, literary, and missionary sources, Kefeli shows how traditional education, with Sufi mystical components, helped to Islamize Finno-Ugric and Turkic peoples in the Kama-Volga countryside and set the stage for the development of modernist Islam in Russia.Of particular interest is Kefeli's emphasis on the role that Tatar women (both Krashen and Muslim) played as holders and transmitters of Sufi knowledge. Today, she notes, intellectuals and mullahs in Tatarstan seek to revive both Sufi and modernist traditions to counteract new expressions of Islam and promote a purely Tatar Islam aware of its specificity in a post-Christian and secular environment. 606 $aApostasy$xChristianity 606 $aApostasy$xIslam 606 $aIslam$zRussia$xHistory 615 0$aApostasy$xChristianity. 615 0$aApostasy$xIslam. 615 0$aIslam$xHistory. 676 $a947.00882/97 700 $aKefeli$b Agne?s Nilu?fer$0990091 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910169193703321 996 $aBecoming Muslim in Imperial Russia$92264625 997 $aUNINA
