Compensation Agreements in U.S.-USSR Economic Relations.

Abstract

This paper was designed to serve as a partial basis for discussion at the SRI/IMEMO Workshop on Compensation agreements held in Moscow 6-11 December 1977. This workshop was one facet of a continuing parallel research program on U.S.-USSR economic relations developed by SRI International and the Institute for the World Economy and International Relations (IMEMO) of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. The paper was presented and revised in light of the discussion with Soviet scholars. This paper only reflects materials available on compensation agreements through February 1978. A summary of discussion at the Workshop is published separately as SSC-TN-5552-2. This paper attempts to present, for the purposes of discussion, private sector attitudes and concerns in regard to participation in compensation agreements and the implications of this private sector perspective for the prospects for further development of compensation agreement in U.S.-USSR trade. While the focus here is the private sector, the analysis is accomplished within the broader framework of national interests in U.S.-USSR economic relations, which includes political strategic as well as economic dimensions.
