The Role of DoD in Export Control as Defined by The Export Administration Act of 1979.

Abstract

This study presents and interprets the legislative history of national security export controls embodied in the Export Administration Act of 1979. It reviews in detail the evolution of the requirement for the development of a Militarily Critical Technologies List (MCTL). The study also speculates on possible uses of the MCTL by various constituencies, comments on the need for further Congressional clarification of the Export Administration Act, and assesses the utility of the critical technologies approach to export control.
