Abstract
The ‘arms control process’ from 1980 until 1987 produced no new arms control and has even lost many of the attributes one would normally associate with a ‘process’. This was a substantial change from the 1970s, when Western arms control policies sought, with at least some success, to begin reducing by progressive increments the levels of nuclear and non-nuclear armaments while attempting to make war less likely by restructuring the East—West armed confrontation in Europe.
