Subject
The topic of the resource
Unplanned explosions at munitions sites
Description
An account of the resource
A map of unplanned explosions at munitions sites from 1979-2013. These stockpile explosions are often correlated with conflicts in the region, not as acts of war, but accidents due to storing weapons, often in preparation for some kind of military (or para-military) action. This is not a map of hazards, per se, but rather could be seen as a map of fear of the hazard of war. As the stockpiling of weapons is inherently dangerous, we can see in this map where that risk was worth the assumed protection of more weaponry, which ties into the Soviet era arms race as it relates to Civil Defense.
