Description
This paper examines the issues behind the reductions in military spending of the US-led NATO as a result of the end of the Cold War which prompted the collapse of the Soviet Empire. This welcome change poses problems for both the former Communist defence factories and Western defence companies. Failure to convert effectively to "civilian" production will necessitate plant closures and laying off workers. What action should be taken by governments? How should defence companies act?
