How will the crucial resource of technology shape the world order now emerging from the collapse of the USSR? How should international trade in advanced technology be regulated? In Economic Containment, Michael Mastanduno addresses the way such questions are confronted at both national and international levels. Mastanduno provides a definitive account of how the United States and its Western allies coordinated controls on exports of high technology, especially those with possible military applications, to the Soviet Union. Principally, Mastanduno examines the ways in which effective cooperation was forged in the Coordinating Committee (better known as CoCom), the primary Western export control organization between 1949 and 1990.
