Abstract
Abstract In recent years considerable controversy has been generated with respect to the possible leverage that the United States may have acquired by virtue of expanded economic relations with the Soviet Union. This article reviews the question and concludes that the benefits to the Soviet economy do, indeed, confer upon U.S. policymakers the potential for limited leverage over certain aspects of Soviet policy. Concrete steps toward the implementation of such a leverage policy, however, must comprise a sound strategic and tactical design—taking careful account of the limitations of such a policy, the U.S. and broader Western institutions to be employed, and the nature of the Soviet system which is being targeted.
