ASP Releases New Report, “U.S. Export Controls: Emerging Consensus On Increasing Risk”
posted by bob filippone on April 20, 2010 at 11:37 am
The American Security Project recently released a new report examining the US export control system and the need for greater transparency, predictability, as well as the need to protect fewer things better. The report, authored by ASP Senior Fellow Evelyn N. Farkas, specifically argues that the United States needs to develop a system which prohibits the transfer of critical military and dual-use technologies to countries, entities, and individuals that pose a real or potential threat to the United States; protects the technological edge of the U.S. military; fosters a strong defense industrial base; and facilitates interoperability and cooperation with U.S. allies and foreign partners.
