The Illicit Small Arms in the Pacific Research Project conducted a strategic assessment, rather than a detailed stocktake, of the illicit small arms situation in the Western Pacific Island region. It focused on Fiji, PNG (excluding Bougainville) and Solomon Islands. As anticipated, most illicit small arms in the region come from within the countries studied and are largely recirculated within them. However, pockets exist where weapons transgress borders, although this is not particularly organised or substantial. There are also trends with new weapons entering the region, but these are mostly imported by, or with the knowledge and/or approval of, national governments. This makes illicit small arms in Western Pacific Island countries less of a transnational problem and more of a national government problem. Several region-wide trends are linked, potentially to small arms proliferation. These were outside the scope of this project, but are worthy of attention and so are discussed briefly in this project report.

This publication assesses the reports submitted to the UN by member states during 2003 on the progress they have made towards implementation of the UN Programme of Action on Small Arms and Light Weapons (PoA). This is based on a joint project undertaken by the UN Development Programme (UNDP), the UN Department for Disarmament Affairs (UNDDA) and the UN Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR), in collaboration with the Small Arms Survey. Findings include that 103 out of 191 member states submitted annual reports during 2003, with progress made on implementation of the PoA in the areas of national legislation, weapons collection and destruction, and public awareness.

Even though impacts generated by the widespread availability and ongoing use of small arms and light weapons have not reached a magnitude sufficient to radically reorder contemporary world affairs, awareness of the nature and extent of these impacts has compelled some international actors to take decisive action. Damien Rogers examines how the international community has responded to the challenge of controlling small arms and light weapons since the early 1990s. Using a postinternationalist analytic framework, he specifically focuses on the maturing relationships between particular actors of world affairs and the nascent interconnectivity between their strategies for, and approaches toward, controlling these weapons. Furthermore, the book identifies ways in which the captains of small arms industry, arms brokers and chief users of these weapons are able to mitigate, resist or elude the intended effects of those responses.
