Abstract | The purpose of this guide is to encourage a rational understanding of the problems associated with nuclear armaments and to present a constructive approach to finding a solution. Each unit is introduced with a review of new terms, after which the topic is summarized and then is concluded with a vocabulary review and unit examination. Unit 1 examines today's world as it exists in relation to the territorial incursions made by the Soviet Union. Unit 2 synopsizes the major events in Russian and Soviet history. Unit 3 outlines the different types of responses by the United States to Soviet threats. Unit 4 discusses peacemaking strategies of aid, negotiation, armistices, and treaties. Unit 5 describes the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). The goal of the SDI program is to remove the threat of first-strike destruction from long-range missiles. The SDI program is geared to intercepting and neutralizing any weapon that exits the atmosphere. The book concludes with answer sheets for the vocabulary lessons, reviews, and examinations. (SM) |
