The Strategic Defense Initiative
Author: Edward Reiss
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 0521410975
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
This history of the Strategic Defense Initiative ranges across politics, economics, strategic studies and international relations, and provides the latest research into the SDI interest groups, the distribution of contracts, and the politics of influence. It discusses the wider contexts of 'Star Wars', such as alliance management, marketing, and domestic politics, and its military spin-offs, especially for anti-satellite (ASAT) and 'space control' programmes. The author tests the theoretical literature on the dynamics of the arms race by using SDI as a case study, and draws evidence from sources such as congressional hearings, interviews, the trade press, restricted briefing papers, and documents obtained under the US Freedom of Information Act. The book follows the fortunes of strategic defence into the changed global conditions of the 1990s, following the collapse of the Soviet bloc, the Gulf War, and President Bush's announcement of a refocused SDI, the Global Protection Against Limited Strikes (GPALS).

Book Description
The Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) is a research program in which President Reagan asked key scientists and technological leaders to conduct research aimed at determining whether there are cost-effective defensive technologies that could improve the deterrent capability of the United States and allies. The concept of the SDI program envisions a layered defense where hostile missiles could be attacked shortly after launch during the boost and postboost phase, individual attack on the warheads themselves or attack as they approach the end of their flight. Standard arguments for and against the SDI program were examined. Information was gathered using a review of the literature and through analysis of the views of key military and civilian leaders. While it has been argued that a US SDI program will cause instability rather than promote stability, it must be realized that the Soviet Union has been emphasizing defense and survivability and has been pursuing an extensive SDI program for many years. The SDI program facilitated dialogue and negotiations between the United States and the Soviet Union as well as has the potential to enhance our basic defense strategy of deterrence. The program was in part responsible for the successful Geneva Summit meetings in November 1985. The US Congress, the elections of 1988 and US public opinion will play a significant role in the future of the SDI program.
