Publisher Description: This volume is part of a Foreign Relations subseries that documents the most important foreign policy issues of the Jimmy Carter administration. The focus of this volume is on U.S. policy toward the Soviet Union during the Carter administration, demonstrating the growing tension between U.S. and Soviet leaders and the eventual downfall of d tente. Relations with the Soviet Union remained at the top of Carter's foreign policy agenda, just as they had been in the Nixon and Ford administrations. However, the U.S. relationship with the Soviet Union was never simply bilateral in nature; instead, the two super powers were actively engaged politically throughout the world. Therefore, this volume includes documentation on the Middle East, China, Eastern and Western Europe, and the Horn, as well as SALT, emigration, and human rights. This historical, primary source reference would be invaluable to anyone interested in the Soviet-U.S. relations and negotiations during President Carter's administration as well as international relations scholars, foreign policy analysts, political scientists and historians. Additionally some nonprofit development directors and corporate global affairs staffers that work to provide products or services in the Middle East, China, Western Europe, and Soviet Union may be interested in the type of past negotiations that led to US agreements within this part of the world. |
