The Moscow agreements and strategic arms limitation

The Strategic Arms Limitations Talks Agreements are the most important result of the long search by the United States and the Soviet Union for a means of controlling nuclear weapons. This paper presents an authoritative analysis of the Agreements, which were signed in Moscow in 1972. Professor Bull seeks to estimate the value of the Agreements in relation to the objectives of arms control set out more than a decade ago in his pioneering theoretical work The Control of the Arms Race and to assess their significance for the political and strategic relations among the major powers. His findings are based on research and conversations in America, Europe and Japan
