DISENGAGEMENT

Abstract

The crisis of Western security has political as well as military aspects. Disengagement is a term now frequently used to designate certain proposals for change in American foreign policy, so that we can overcome the crisis. The current political proposals for disengagement are not - or not yet -- based on the premise that the West is forced to retreat. Instead, they are predicated on certain estimates of present and future Soviet intentions and on the fear of accidental war.
