Contributors assess the status of space-based weaponry, analyzing the interests of the existing space and missile powers in achieving nonproliferation of long range missiles, and examining the broader issues of ICBM proliferation, testing, monitoring, and verification. They look at the precedents and potential for a universal, long range missile nonproliferation regime, demonstrating that universal and regional approaches are feasible and badly needed to strengthen the existing ballistic missile nonproliferation regime.
