“Few diplomatic undertakings have attracted as much public attention, or elicited as emotional a response from both policy makers and non-governmental observers, as have the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT). Since November 17, 1969, the United States and the Soviet Union have been engaged in a series of negotiations whose consequences may well determine the course of superpower relations and the prospects for peace into the next century.”
So writes Robert J. Pranger, Director of Defense and Foreign Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, in his introduction to AEI’s newly- published SALT Handbook.
