Hardcover. Zustand: very good condition. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: very good. First Edition. First Printing. xxii, 504, 920 pages. Footnotes. Illustrations (with 16 pages of plates). Appendix. Index. Compelling memoir of this former ambassador and his work under Presidents for fifty years. Paul Henry Nitze (January 16, 1907 October 19, 2004) was an American businessman and government official who served as United States Deputy Secretary of Defense, U.S. Secretary of the Navy, and Director of Policy Planning for the U.S. State Department. He is best known for being the principal author of NSC 68 and the co-founder of Team B. He helped shape U.S. Cold War defense policy over the course of numerous presidential administrations. preeminent figure in Washington and a key policymaker, Nitze here provides a memoir with a sweeping inside view of key post-1945 foreign-policy events--the Marshall Plan, Berlin blockade, H-bomb decision, Korean War, Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam, SALT I and II, INF and SDI--but the writing is as factually dull as a briefing paper. Nitze relates his early background only briefly and concentrates on his long years of public service. Born in 1907 in Amherst, educated at Harvard, an investment banker in the 1930's, Nitze entered public service during WW II, working for most subsequent Presidents, including Bush, for whom he is a top arms negotiator. Major policy-making events of his career range from the 1940's US Strategic Bombing Survey to the arms accords of 1970's and 1980's. Nitze played key roles in the 1972 SALT I and 1979 SALT II negotiations, the results of which represented the first steps in exerting control over the nuclear arms race. A tough negotiator, deeply knowledgeable about the intricacies of arms, Nitze felt the Soviets gained the most from SALT I in that is recognized their existing lead in missiles but that, with the US also winning key concessions, the final result was worthwhile. SALT II, on the other hand, gave Nitze doubts, and he recommended changes to the US Senate, which never ratified it. Regarding the INF negotiations of the 1980's, Nitze here reveals details of his famous "walk in the woods" with his Soviet counterpart, Yuli Kvitsinskiy. In the five Summits of the Reagan years, Nitze proved to be a strong backer of SDI, and he does not believe its theoretical development and testing are in conflict with the first SALT agreement. Gorbachev, he feels, has great "tactical brilliance" in foreign policy but is much less effective domestically. An important, up-close account that's nearly spoiled by its wooden style.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The issues that face us are momentous, involving the fulfilment or destruction not only of this Republic but of civilisation itself.' -NCS-68 (1950) The National Security Council Report 68, or NSC-68, was drafted by a NSC Study Group under the chairmanship of Paul Nitze of the State Department and presented to President Truman in April 1950. It described the Soviet Union as the biggest threat to the United States, recommending a large expansion of the military budget and aid to America's allies. This top-secret report, declassified in 1975, established the geopolitical framework for waging the Cold War and became one of its most influential documents setting the stage for the future collapse of the Soviet Union. This is a must-read for students of foreign policy and history, and anyone interested in American-Russian relations.…

Wraps. Second printing [stated]. ix, [3], 137, [3] p. 23 cm. Occasional Footnotes. S. Nelson Drew (1948-1995) was an career Air Force Officer who was killed in a tragic accident while working on the Balkan Peace plan on August 19, 1995. He earned several degrees from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He also earned a degree from the University of Virginia. He served as an operational intelligence officer in the United States and overseas until 1980. From then until 1983 and again in 1989, he taught political science at the Air Force Academy. He was named a National Security Fellow at Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government in 1989, leaving a year later to become United States Assistant for Defense Operations and Policy for NATO in Brussels. He became a professor of national security policy at the National War College in January 1994, and was named in January 1995, to serve as NATO Branch Chief in the Directorate for Strategic Plans and Policy of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He had achieved the rank of Colonel. He was universally respected for his knowledge, his negotiating skills, his strategic thinking about the future of NATO and Europe after the Cold War. While on their way to Sarajevo to discuss new peace plans in the Balkans, he and two other US diplomats (Joseph Kruzel, and Robert C. Frasure) were killed when a rain-soaked dirt road collapsed beneath the armored personnel carrier in which they were traveling in, sending the vehicle rolling down a 500-meter slope into a ravine. President Clinton awarded him the Presidential Citizens Medal posthumously. From Wikipedia: "Paul Henry Nitze (January 16, 1907 October 19, 2004) was a high-ranking United States government official who helped shape Cold War defense policy over the course of numerous presidential administrations. Nitze co-founded the School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) with Christian Herter in 1943. His publications during this period include U.S. Foreign Policy: 1945-1955. In 1961, President Kennedy appointed Nitze Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs. In 1963, Nitze became the Secretary of the Navy, serving until 1967. Following his term as Secretary of the Navy, he served as Deputy Secretary of Defense (1967 1969). From an on-line posting on Nelson Drew: "He served as an operational intelligence officer until 1980. He became NATO Branch Chief in the Directorate for Strategic Plans and Policy of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. " United States Objectives and Programs for National Security, better known as NSC 68, was a top secret U.S. National Security Council (NSC) policy paper drafted by the Department of State and Department of Defense and presented to President Harry S. Truman on 7 April 1950. It was one of the most important American policy statements of the Cold War. In the words of scholar Ernest R. May, NSC 68 "provided the blueprint for the militarization of the Cold War from 1950 to the collapse of the Soviet Union at the beginning of the 1990s." NSC 68 and its subsequent amplifications advocated a large expansion in the military budget of the United States, the development of a hydrogen bomb, and increased military aid to allies of the United States. It made the rollback of global Communist expansion a high priority and rejected the policies of détente and containment of the Soviet Union. By 1950, U.S. national security policies required reexamination due to a series of events: the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) was operational, military assistance for European allies had begun, the Soviet Union had detonated an atomic bomb and the communists had solidified their control of China. Similar problems were also plaguing Japan. With these threats to the U.S. and its allies expanding, on 31 January 1950 President Truman directed the Department of State and Department of Defense "to undertake a reexamination of our objectives in peace and war and of the effect of these objectives on our strategic plans." A State-Defense Policy Review Group was set up under the chairmanship of Paul Nitze of the State Department. Nitze, an advocate of rollback, ensured that only the most severe claims about the Soviet Union were cited in the document. The analysis of top Kremlin experts like George Kennan, Llewellyn Thompson, and Charles Bohlen, were categorically omitted. The KennanThompsonBohlen group maintained that Stalin's principal goal was to secure tight control of the USSR and its satellites, but that he had no plan to seek global domination. Nitze however, contended that the Soviets were determined to conquer the whole of Europe and most of Asia and Africa. The Defense Department representatives on the committee initially resisted proposals that would exceed the existing $12.5 billion ceiling on defense spending. The report, designated NSC 68, was presented to President Truman on 7 April 1950, who passed it on to the NSC for further consideration on 12 April 1950. President Harry S. Truman, even after the Soviets became a nuclear power, sought to curb military spending. By June, Nitze had practically given up on it. But on 25 June 1950, North Korean forces crossed the 38th parallel north. With the Korean War begun, NSC 68 took on new importance. Good. No dust jacket. Cover has some wear and soiling.…
