Psychological inspection.
Expert InsightsPublished 1960
A description of the "psychological inspection" approach to the problem of disarmament. By this method violations of an arms-control agreement will be sought in people, not in places. Psychological inspection will concentrate on people at various levels with knowledge of violation, rather than on the physical violations themselves. This approach appears most promising because of its wide applications to actions on which limitations may be placed by an international arms-control agreement, and as a supplement to more conventional "physical" inspection techniques and systems.
