NEW BOOK ON DEFENSE CONVERSION

Real Security: Converting the Defense Economy and Building Peace

Kevin J. Cassidy and Gregory A. Bischak, Editors

With the end of the cold war and the extraordinary military
competition that characterized it, the meaning of national security
is being redefined. This book participates in that task by proposing
a new, demilitarized foreign policy based on collective security,
and an industrial policy capable of shifting the country's resources
from military purposes to the revitalization of the economy. This
reduction in military production will also make possible the
reversal of the environmental legacy of the cold war, analyzed at
length here.

Kevin J. Cassidy is Associate Professor of Politics at Fairfield
University. Gregory A. Bischak is the Executive Director of the
National Commission for Economic Conversion and Disarmament in
Washington, D.C.
