THE ATLANTIC POLICY STUDIES

THE TROUBLED PARTNERSHIP

A Reappraisal of the Western Alliance

BY HENRY A. KISSINGER

Dr. Henry Kissinger's book deals with the great and increasingly critical problems of the Atlantic Alliance. The author of the famed *Nuclear Weapons and Foreign Policy and The Necessity for Choice*, undertakes a penetrating inquiry into the whole future of the Atlantic Community in political, economic, and military terms.

"Nothing is more dangerous," Dr. Kissinger writes, "than the fashionable theory that all problems in the Atlantic Alliance have been caused by one man, and that the major problem is to await his disappearance from the scene."

In this forceful study of the entire range of issues before the Atlantic Alliance, Dr. Kissinger brings out the fact that the strains in the Alliance are due above all to fundamental changes in the political and economic position of Europe and to the nature of modern weapons technology. The future health of NATO depends on the willingness of the United States to adjust the previous position of tutelage to one of equal partnership and in the process to create a new political structure for all countries bordering the North Atlantic.

depriving our allies of theirs," Dr. Kissinger warns, "either NATO will fall apart or we will break the political will of our allies."

In showing how the future of NATO can only be shaped by changes in political and military attitudes today, Dr. Kissinger examines the main difficulties that face the Alliance, and he writes forcefully on the strategy for defending Western Europe, on the control of nuclear weapons, the German problem, European unity, East-West relations, and the relative weight of America and Europe in the Alliance.

The result is an authoritative, highly informed and incisive discussion by one of the most knowledgeable and experienced men in the entire field of modern arms and foreign policy, and a distinguished first volume in *The Atlantic Policy Studies* to be published by McGraw-Hill.

THE ATLANTIC POLICY STUDIES

THE TROUBLED PARTNERSHIP

BY HENRY A. KISSINGER

Dr. Henry Kissinger's book, the first in a twelve volume series to be
sponsored by The Council on Foreign Relations, deals with the great and increasing-
ly critical problems of the Atlantic Alliance. It is a detailed explanation by the
author of the famed Nuclear Weapons and Foreign Policy and The Necessity for Choice,
and as one of The Atlantic Policy Studies' series is a penetrating inquiry into the whole
future of the Atlantic Community in political, economic, and military terms.

In this forceful study of the entire NATO Alliance, Dr. Kissinger brings out
the fact that the strains on the Alliance are due far less to errors or American
governmental policies than to the intransigence of various heads of state such as General de Gaulle,
changes in the political and economic position of
international affairs, advances in modern weapons technology,
the nature of modern weapons technology and the alliances of different nations.
The future health of NATO depends on the will-
ingness of the United States to surrender some sovereignty in a more embracing
international order, and on the success of the present program of political structure to countries bordering on the North Atlantic. "If we insist on
maintaining our freedom of action while depriving our allies of theirs," Dr. Kissinger
warns, "either NATO will fall apart or we will break the political will of our
allies."

In any event, the real issue is not the institutions but the composition of a united Europe. An effective Europe cannot be built without the whole-hearted support of Great Britain. As long as Britain stands on the sidelines, uncertain about its direction and undecided about its European role, any solution will be partial. Issues will be confused because symbolic and substantive measures cannot be distinguished. Many in Europe will be wary of British proposals because they fear that they are intended to undermine a European sense of identity. This is most noticeable in the field of nuclear control but it applies in all other fields as well. "Atlantic" and "European" conceptions will come to seem as alternatives rather than as complementary. This will produce a schism in many countries, most obviously in the Federal Republic. As long as Britain does not make a commitment to the unity of Europe, the thrust of most current policies will be either to isolate Britain or to isolate France.

To be sure, Britain was prevented from entering the Common Market by a French veto. But it is also clear that Britain's ambivalence contributed to this outcome and that it has been uncertain about its relations with Europe for the entire post-war period. Exclusion from the Common Market could not prevent an active British role in the political construction of Europe if Britain is prepared to exercise leadership. Until Britain is ready for this role, debates about federalism as against confederalism are academic.

THE TROUBLED PARTNERSHIP:
*A Reappraisal of the Atlantic Alliance*

$5.95

This is the first of the twelve volume *Atlantic Policy Studies* being sponsored by the Council on Foreign Relations. In taking up the subject of United States relations with Europe, Dr. Kissinger has been able to expand the material he touched upon in *The Necessity for Choice*. His examination, of course, is primarily in terms of Western defensive strategy and heavily influenced by his complex theories on nuclear deterrence which he introduced in *Nuclear Weapons and Foreign Policy*. The military problems of the Alliance are closely involved with and interact upon its political and structural situation. The tremendous recovery of war-torn Europe, coupled with a re-identification of national attitudes, must be reconciled with the need for European integration, and the United States must be willing to re-evaluate its standing with the European nations individually and as a unit. Politically this involves reaching an agreement on the reunification of Germany and an understanding of the divisiveness of Europe, which has been too easily symbolized by De Gaulle's refusal to include Great Britain in the Common Market. Dr. Kissinger probes into the inconsistencies of NATO's defenses especially with regard to the use of conventional weapons, and provides an alternative to the Multilateral Force in terms of the stronger, more cohesive Europe which he forsees. For the astute in international affairs this is a provocative study by Harvard's military analyst.

Looking at the first copy of your new book, I feel we now should be on a first-name basis--but seriously, I am very proud of having been connected with the volume and want very badly to continue to be your editor.

I have ordered twenty-five copies to be sent up to Cambridge, and they should arrive within a few days. We will now begin to seed the rest of the market with bound books and work towards a well-deserved happy ending.

When you have time, I'd appreciate an autographed copy.

From the COUNCIL ON
FOREIGN RELATIONS...

McGraw-Hill will publish this Spring the first two books in an internationally significant series on current foreign affairs and policy: the Atlantic Policy Studies.

In April, prize-winning Henry A. Kissinger's *THE TROUBLED PARTNERSHIP: A Reappraisal of the Atlantic Alliance* ($5.95) will be published. Dr. Kissinger's most recent and highly controversial book was *Nuclear Weapons and Foreign Policy*. In May, *ALTERNATIVE TO PARTITION: For A Broader Concept of America's Role in Europe*, by Zbigniew Brzezinski, will appear ($5.50). Professor Brzezinski, is director of the Research Institute of Communist Affairs at Columbia University and is the author, with Samuel P. Huntington, of *Political Power: USA/USSR*.

Sponsored by the Council on Foreign Relations, this multi-volume series' major thesis is that the strength and growth of human civilization depends largely upon how well the free West can cooperatively offset the increased power of the Communist bloc and help underdeveloped nations find a satisfying future in an orderly world.

It is of the greatest importance, then, to take afresh the measure of the potential resources—political, economic, and strategic—of the Atlantic community to consider how it can best shape a world where freedom may flourish.

The Atlantic Policy Studies will be for every man and woman concerned with America's position and increasing responsibilities in today's complex world.

PRIMITIVE ARTISTS
OF YUGOSLAVIA
an important new art book

"I was born on October 8, 1930, in the village of Rabrovo, to a peasant family. As a child, I liked all sorts of crafts—and especially painting on a piece of paper or on canvas—all the time up until I left for the army in '50. There I could not do much work, because of material conditions; but in '53 I began to paint life in the village and all the events wherein I could see the reflections of art as I imagined it, and painted it for my own satisfaction—landscapes, the different faces of animals, and so on. I am married and have a child, wife, and mother; otherwise, I am a peasant and work in the fields on my farm. I use all my free time for painting.

New York, New York

Dear Mr. Scharlatt:

Why is it that the simplest problem turns into such an issue
at McGraw-Hill? Since the end of April I have asked you for a
written statement where we stand with foreign rights. Since that
time you told me that it was in the process of being prepared. I
have yet to see it. This is the kind of information that any other
publisher furnishes automatically and in which I have been always

When Harper's published *The Necessity for Choice*, there appeared simultaneously a British and German edition. You know that the German edition has been completely botched. You have avoided giving me the information about the British edition. It simply cannot be in your interest to be so unresponsive to reasonable requests.

May I ask you to send me a written statement of where we stand
with our foreign rights at your earliest opportunity? I am leaving
for Europe on Wednesday, June 9th and must have this information.

Could you please let me hear something about Jules Moch's
manuscript? He is an important figure in France and a friend of mine
and you have had his manuscript for over six months.

P.S. I am constantly told of bookstores, including the Harvard Coop
and Scribner's in New York, which have run out of copies and which
are told that it will take three weeks to re-order.

Dear Mr. Scharlatt:

I thought you might like to have a list of cities from
which I now have had complaints that books were not available.
This is based on unsolicited reports from friends who have
tried to purchase a book and have been told that the book was
out of stock.

Boston      Harvard Coop
            Charles Lauriat Co.

New York    Scribner's

Pittsburgh

San Francisco

I do not know the book dealers in the last two cities,
but the friends were both from the academic community and
presumably went to a reputable dealer. This is an unprecedented
experience for me and I do not see how it can fail to kill the
sales.

Also, the Washington correspondent of _The Christian Science Monitor_ and the International Editor of _The Christian Science Monitor_ both complained to me that they have not received copies of my book, even though they are eager to review it.

OF POLITICAL EVOLUTION:
THE WEST, COMMUNISM,
AND THE NEW NATIONS

1. POLITICAL EVOLUTION AND COMMUNISM

PERHAPS even more worrisome than specific policy dilemmas—
with which the previous chapters have dealt—has been our inter-
pretation of the contemporary revolution. Sometimes pretending
that peace, conceived simply as tranquility, was just around the
corner, sometimes confusing rhetoric with policy, we have been
unable to define the world that we wish to see emerge—much less the
means for attaining it. All too frequently we have relied for
the solution of our problems on an evolutionary theory in which
the assumed forces of history have replaced purpose and action.
The notion of an inevitable development towards a more desirable
and enlightened political structure has been applied equally to
the two great revolutions of our time: Communism and the emer-
gence of new nations in formerly colonial areas.

With respect to Communism, the argument is frequently heard
that the Soviet Union is in the midst of profound and inevitable
transformations. As it produces more consumers' goods, it will
become a less ideological and less militant society, increasingly
concerned with material comforts. As the standard of living of
Soviet citizens improves and they develop a greater stake in their
society, so the argument goes, they will exert increasing pressure
for the freedoms long familiar in the West. Industrialization re-
quires technical skills and education fosters a questioning spirit.

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

On October 8th I will be coming to Boston and
Cambridge along with Mr. Morrie Helitzer, As-
sistant to the President, and we would very
much like to see you and talk over future
projects.

On our side, it would be most convenient to
meet in the late afternoon--perhaps for dinner,
if that would be most satisfactory with you.

I look forward to our getting together, and
will await word from you at your earliest con-
venience.

Dear Miss Blanchard:

This note will confirm our call of Friday, referring
to Mr. Donald's note of the 30th.

As we reported, his business trip to Boston and
Cambridge on October 8th had to be postponed. As
you've informed us, Dr. Kissinger will be away from
his office until about the middle of next month.
I've relayed this message to Mr. Donald who will
be writing or phoning personally at that time.

Thank you for your help,
