"Confronting the doctrine of political realism. Professor Sterling argues 

 persuasively that new global forces (compression of time and space, the 

 universal quest for development and justice, and the emergence of trans- 

 national actors) have transformed international society and necessitate the 

 macro-perspective . . ." (1)

"Advances in science and technology during the past few decades have ac- 

 celerated the growth of international law as a creative force in organizing 

 and regulating cooperative projects among nations. International control over 

 the utilization of new discoveries, however, has not been realized. Methods to 

 accomplish this goal must be discovered within our existing legal framework 

 or developed through other institutions. The topics discussed in this sym- 

 posium present a clear challenge for international law to acquire and maintain 

 effective control over the potentially destructive technological revolution." 

 Subjects included are "Scientific Advances and International Lawmaking," 

 Oscar Schacter; "Communication SateUites: International Organization for 

 Development and Control," Stephen E. Doyle; "Law, Technology and the

King "draws on his experience as Director- General of the Organization 

 for Economic Cooperation and Development in Paris and his activities as 

 a leader of the Club of Rome to make a powerful and comprehensive analysis 

 of the challenge of modern science and technology to traditional concepts of 

 national sovereignty. He is followed by Gerard Piel, publisher of Scientific 

 American, who returns to the need for development, especially as it affects 

 population growth."

 Kissinger Foreign Policy:' Opportunities and Contradictions, Vol. II, The
