 technology be used to bring about a political detente with her Eastern 

 European neighbors?' Conversely, foreign policy could influence certain 

 aspects of science and educational policy, for instance, the determination of 

 scientific priorities, and the problem of scientific and technological disparities 

 has become one of the principal preoccupations of foreign policy." (4)

This study is a comprehensive review of important facets of NATO's 



Srograms, needs, and impacts as of 1969. Treated are: poHtical consultation in 

 fATO, integration of NATO military forces, leadership, functionalism, and 

 spillover of NATO, military forces, armaments, organizational infrastructure, 

 science, and future roles. The data base is derived from extensive field research 

 and interviews with NATO officials, and officials of the governments forming 

 the NATO alliance. 



The chapter on NATO Science treats formal and informal organizational, 

 leadership, and decision-making structures. Programs, expenditures, the 

 objectives of member governments and trends in developing an integrated 

 science program relevant to member states and the Alliance are also reviewed. 

 With respect to development of an effective integrated science program, the 

 author observes that support for NATO science depends primarily on a 

 "common interest in Western political-military cohension, scientific progress, 

 and information exchange." However, this shared goal is not strong enough to 

 mitigate particular national interests weakening the program.
