Focusing especially on the history of the MX program, this book
examines the process of U.S. weapons procurement decision making.
The authors demonstrate that strategic and general political
factors (as opposed to bureaucratic concerns) play a far more
decisive role in the decision-making process than is indicated in
previous studies of weapons procurement. They also point to the
significant contributions of congressional and public debate in
influencing U.S. policy concerning weapons procurement. The authors
conclude that the pattern of decision making with regard to the MX
reflects a change that began in the 1970s and thus will be
significant in explaining procurement policy in the decade ahead.
