Dr. Jen Spindel of the University of New Hampshire is featured in this MWI War Council, discussing the politics and effects of arms transfers. Selling arms, she explains, is a catch-22. On one hand, offering arms can be a way to attract, and at times coerce, partners. But on the other hand, arms transfers also give weaker states leverage against their great power partners. Dr. Spindel presents evidence of this dynamic from the Cold War and discusses how it plays out today.
