Recenzje

Its value is threefold: hard data, evidence of trends, and analysis ... the SIPRI Yearbook provides the raw data from which new security concepts can, and need to be, fashioned. In its usual sober way, the Yearbook shows how far short we are of anything approaching a new world order, particularly for the parts of Eastern Europe, Asia and Africa engaged in internal conflicts.
