This case study examines the events leading up President Ronald Reagan's March 1983 decision to pursue the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), responding to a massive public movement directed against the nuclear buildup for which Reagan had campaigned. The SDI decision had profound consequences for U.S.-Soviet relations, but especially for their arms control negotiations. This study could be used in courses on international affairs, public policy, national security affairs, international negotiations, presidential decision-making, arms control, or history, with different teaching strategies suited to the background of the participants.

The Strategic Defense Initiative was a defense program supported by President Ronald Reagan that aimed to take the arms race to outer space. Though never carried out, and dubbed Star Wars by its critics, it was the nail in the coffin for the Cold War and therefore considered successful, at least in part. This thorough profile takes the reader behind the scenes and helps explain why this initiative still holds interest for leaders looking for new ways to defend the U.S.
