Analysis and Evaluation of Potential Competition of Interest Among the Major Powers. Volume I. Summary of Conclusions and Development of Study Concepts.
Abstract
An analysis was made of competing international interests between major powers. Activities of six major powers (U.S., West Germany, France, the United Kingdom, U.S.S.R., and Japan) with other nations were correlated by utilizing 20 different indices of involvement. These included imports and exports, direct private investments; tourist flow; military sales and assistance; diplomatic deployments, etc. A data bank and algorithms were prepared and are presently stored in the USAF Multics System. The study examined interactions between the major powers and over 100 other countries, with detailed inputs, assumptions and results shown in the text and supporting appendices. Interpretive conclusions are based upon numerous study findings on Soviet vs. Western styles in influencing third countries.
