Security Index is an academic and policy journal. The journal
illuminates various issues related to international security: from
nonproliferation of weapons of mass destruction and energy security to
information technology and demographic security, military-technical
cooperation, and the development of aerospace, nuclear, and other high
technologies. Security Index, which has gone through several stages of
evolution, has become the leading Russian journal on international
security. Since November 1994, 80 issues of the journal have been
published (until recently under the name Yaderny Kontrol). In January
2007 the journal did not simply gain a new name. It also attained a
new level, broadening its audience in Russia as well as throughout the
world, through an English-language edition that is distributed from
Switzerland. In Russia, the journal is read in the State Duma, the
Federation Council, the Administration of the President, the Security
Council, the Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the
Federal Atomic Energy Agency, the Ministry of Economic Development and
in other executive bodies of the Russian Federation.
