Abstract

Explores the problems and opportunities associated with export controls--one of the most widely used tools of international trade policy in the 1970s and early 1980s; and the role of the United States and Soviet Union as major players in the international economy. Briefly reviews examples of government-initiated export controls--their purposes and methods--from the 1930s through 1983.
