In this examination of the possible threat posed by the marriage of an age-old weapon, poison gas, with a nuclear-age delivery system, the ballistic missile, the authors assess the alleged proliferation of chemical weapons and missile technology worldwide, with particular emphasis on the Asia/Pacific region. They also describe the ongoing efforts to curb chemical and missile proliferation and to find lasting solutions to the problem. Detailed attention is given to the new chemical weapons convention, designed to permanently ban chemical weapons globally, and to the missile technology control regime. Key documents issued at the time of the regime's unveiling in 1987 are included in their entirety.

Chapter 1 The Asia-Pacific region is an area of great strategic importance in the world. The prospering economy of the area after the Second World War has heightened this importance. However, while arms control and disarmament in Europe is moving towards a promising prospect with the ending of the Cold War, the Asia-Pacific region is experiencing an increase in national military expenditures and imports of advanced weapons in most of the States. This chapter gives a picture of this recent military buildup in different nations in the region. Chapter 2 This chapter takes nuclear weapons as an example to show the seriousness of proliferation of mass destructive weapons in the region. Motivated by different national considerations, some States in the region began to pursue nuclear weapons capability. The nuclear weapon programmes of a number of nations such as India, Pakistan and North Korea have aroused concerns of the international community. Although there exists a nuclear non-proliferation regime based on the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, the effectiveness of the regime is hindered by some distinctive loopholes of itself. The task laying in front of the world is to keep and strengthen the existing regime and to work out some alternatives to eliminate the incentives of proliferating States. Chapter 3 Ballistic missiles are either an effective weapon of deterrence or a symbol of national prestige and technological advancement. As an alternative delivery system, the proliferation of ballistic missiles has a strong connection with the proliferation of mass destructive weapons. Quite a few of the Asia-Pacific region States have comprehensive ballistic missile programmes. The proliferation of ballistic missiles not only destabilises the security of the region but also fuels the proliferation of mass destructive weapons. As a mere supply-side policy, the existing Missile Technology Control Regime is far from a comprehensive one and it has many obvious deficiencies. So efforts should be made to pursue new policies toward this proliferation, including measures to enhance the capability of the present MTCR, to strengthen supply control and reduce the incentives of importers.

The Asia-Pacific region has emerged as the hub of global geo-political, geo-economic and geo-strategic significance in the post-Cold War period. The rise of China and the resurgence of India will be the hallmark for the next 50 years. How this surge in power is accommodated by the incumbent powers like the United States and Japan, and how the new regional powers like China and India manage the power politics that emerge will be the key determinants of regional stability. This volume examines the national maritime doctrines as well as the nuclear weapons developments at sea of the four major powers in the Asia-Pacific, namely, China, India, Japan and the United States, to see if the evolving dynamic is a cooperative or a competitive one. In particular, the volume looks at the evolving paradigms of maritime transformation in strategy and technology; the emergent new maritime doctrines and evolving force postures in the naval orders of battle; the role and operations of nuclear navies in the Asia-Pacific; and the implications and impact of nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles and sea-based missile defence responses in the region. Sample Chapter(s). Chapter 1: Cooperation or Competition in Maritime Asia-Pacific? (544 KB). Chapter 3: Maritime Strategic Trends in the Asia-Pacific: Issues and Challenges (1,534 KB). Contents: Issues, Trends and Paradigms in Maritime Asia-Pacific; National Maritime Doctrines and Capabilities; Nuclear Weapons and Missile Defences: The Maritime Dimension in the Asia-Pacific. Readership: Policy makers, academics, research analysts and students interested in maritime security in the Asia-Pacific region.

"US policy choices toward TMD in the Asia-Pacific region must be acutely mindful of the pitfalls associated with missile defense deployments, but they must also be responsive to the growing ballistic missile threats in the region. A simplistic, "one-size-fits-all" policy for TMD would worsen regional security and harm US national security interests"--Web site

The growing number and modernization of ballistic missiles in the Asia-Pacific region poses a security challenge for the United States and its allies and is thus a concern for many in Congress. The United States has made ballistic missile defense (BMD) a central component of protection for forward-deployed U.S. forces and extended deterrence for allied security. The configuration of sensors, command-and-control centers, and BMD assets in the region has slowly evolved with contributions from treaty allies, primarily Japan, Australia, and South Korea. Observers believe that North Korea has an arsenal of hundreds of short-range ballistic missiles and likely dozens of medium-range Nodong missiles; the extended-range Nodongs are considered capable of reaching Japan and U.S. bases there. Longer-range North Korean missiles appear to remain unreliable, with only one successful test out of five in the past 15 years. The U.S. intelligence community has not reached consensus that North Korea can build nuclear warheads small enough to put on ballistic missiles, and there is debate among experts on this question.

In 2015, Congress tasked the Department of Defense to commission an independent assessment of U.S. military strategy and force posture in the Asia-Pacific, as well as that of U.S. allies and partners, over the next decade. This CSIS study fulfills that congressional requirement. The authors assess U.S. progress to date and recommend initiatives necessary to protect U.S. interests in the Pacific Command area of responsibility through 2025. Four lines of effort are highlighted: (1) Washington needs to continue aligning Asia strategy within the U.S. government and with allies and partners; (2) U.S. leaders should accelerate efforts to strengthen ally and partner capability, capacity, resilience, and interoperability; (3) the United States should sustain and expand U.S. military presence in the Asia-Pacific region; and (4) the United States should accelerate development of innovative capabilities and concepts for U.S. forces.
