Reaganov "Rat zvijezda"
Reagan's "Star Wars"

Summary/Abstract: The Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) is a new American project; it introduces substantial changes in a wide spectrum of V.S. activities — in military technology, doctrines and politics. The project was at first presented as the expression of the U. S. Administration’s efforts to replace the concept of deterrence which is based on offensive weapons and on the constant threat of mass retaliation, by a new kind of security, based on protection and defence. In technical terms, SDI is conceived as a perfect system of coordinated action, capable of timely deterring the arbits of Soviet missiles and of destroying them before the werheads can leave the atmosphere. Numerous technological, economic, political, ethical and other implications and consequences of the implementation of this system have become the subject of controversy and debate, both within U.S.A. and in the international community at large.
