Crateology was the 'science' of identifying the contents of Soviet shipments to the Island of Cuba carried out by the Central Intelligence Agency during the Cuban Missile Crisis.〔Kessler, R. (1994). Inside the CIA. Pocket Books. ISBN 978-0-671-73458-9.〕 Crateology has declined as a discipline in recent years due to globalisation and the decline in the usage of custom made wooden crates in favour of standard metal shipping containers. As well as making the world 'flatter' and smaller', globalisation has resulted in the loss of not merely a science, but a 'beautiful art form'.〔D. Salisbury (2009). The Crate Escape: Packaging and its Typonomy and Taxonomy Throughout The Cold War.〕 == See also == * CIA activities in Cuba * Cuban Missile Crisis * National technical means of verification 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「crateology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
