6. During the 1960 Presidential elections which were dominated by questions
or national security, a significant shirt had taken place in the American
intellectual climate regarding questions or disarmament and arms control.
There was a growing belief that the accelerating procurement or sophisti-
cated weaponry was contributing more to American insecurity than
security. In the Fall 1960 special issue or Daedalus, several or America's
leading strategic thinkers agreed that civilisation was raced with an
unprecedented crisis and that serious proposals for arms control with
attainable goals - essential unto itself - needed to be pursued. This is
