CURRENT RISKS |
|
Both sides in the battle that rages over export controls invoke the term ãriskä to make a case for a tightening or relaxation of current policies. Those who favor heightened trade restrictions argue that we face a substantial risk to our domestic security by terrorists, criminals, and hostile nations by exporting high technology items. Those who favor the loosening of export controls argue that it is our own technology companies who are at risk when we tie their hands and prevent them from competing in the global market by limiting the foreign sale of goods.
