INITIAL FRAMEWORK FOR CONSIDERING DUAL-USE TECHNOLOGIES

  1. Introduction

    1. Changing character of international relations and implications for defense strategies, development and control of dual-use technologies, and international cooperation in business and research. Need to consider many interrelated aspects of dual use technologies in responding to growing interest in greater reliance on transparency and less reliance on controls. New emphasis on proliferation concerns and East-West strategic confrontation lessens.

    2. Objectives of interacademy cooperation in considering dual-use technologies including building confidence to enhance national security, clarifying opportunities which facilitate the Russian transition to a viable market economy, promoting mutual interests in commercial transactions, and contributing to international science and technology.

    3. Use of methodology set forth below to clarify problems attendant to specific technologies which illustrate full dimensions of the problems. Emphasize the following questions: When are controls appropriate? What are the approaches for strict controls? What is the importance of conversion and commercialization of civilian science and technology? What are the practical aspects of conversion of military technologies?

  1. Initial selection of dual-use technologies which illustrate the variety of opportunities and problems in building confidence and reducing risks of proliferation. Complimentary technologies, including process technologies, may be considered at a later date.

  1. A component-level technology: electro-optical devices

  2. A materials-level technology: structural materials

  3. A systems-level technology: high performance computers

  1. Identification of opportunities for cooperation that reduce the need for controls.

    1. Increased glasnost attendant to cooperation

    2. Joint research and development and sharing of results

    3. International approaches through UN or other channels

  1. Circumstances or technological applications that do not require controls or reduce the need for controls. (The following examples were raised in the discussions but none of them have been deeply examined. These and other suggestions will be considered.)

    1. Civil applications with little or no possibility of diversion

    2. Redeployment of technical manpower

    3. Internationalization of technology

    4. Obsolescence and/or commoditization of technology

  1. Circumstances or technological applications that require a continuation of controls. (The following examples were raised in the discussions but none of them have been deeply examined. These and other suggestions will be considered.)

    1. East-West security concerns (use; re-export)

    2. North-South proliferation concerns

    3. Choke point technologies, including process technologies

    4. Other key technological know-how

  1. Identification of processes for monitoring and/or control when necessary. (The following examples were raised in the discussions but none of them have been deeply examined. These and other suggestions will be considered.)

    1. Different levels of intrusion for reporting and inspection B. Criteria for end-use verification and transparency

    2. Implementation of end-use verification

    3. Reporting and maintenance of data bases

    4. Processes and mechanisms for avoiding ''technological surprise''

  1. Consideration of new institutional arrangements (The following examples were raised in the discussions but none of them have been deeply examined. These and other suggestions will be considered.)

  1. Modified COCOM

  2. U.S.-Russia Center (analytical or control center)

  3. Programs to reorient Russian weapons scientists

  4. UN regional technology transfer center in the CIS

  5. New stimulus to joint ventures and other business alliances

  6. International cooperation in science and technology

  7. Joint data bases and expanded use of electronic communications
