Abstract: Summary: A negotiated disarmament process, particularly on the sole basis of reducing military expenditure, is an interesting collective international approach, but it is likely to lead to dangerous strategic imbalances. The peace dividend is not immediately forthcoming, although in the long term, provided there is equal security and the effects of domination between states are reduced, it can improve the potential for human development. Moreover, the disarmament process is reversible at any time and does not prevent the emergence of new and more effective weapons. The search for sustainable development presupposes control of arms production, military research and development and dual-use products (civilian and military), particularly in the area of control of digital information technologies.
