In March 1995, President Clinton ordered a sweeping reexamination of the United States Government's approach to putting science and technology to the service of national security and global stability in light of the changed security environment, increasing global economic competition, and growing budgetary pressures. This National Security Science and Technology Strategy, the product of that reexamination, is the country's first comprehensive Presidential statement of national security science and technology priorities. It augments the President's National Security Strategy of Engagement and Enlargement by articulating science and technology policies and initiatives that support the President's three primary national security objectives: enhancing our military readiness and capabilities, preventing conflict from occurring through engagement with other nations, and promoting prosperity at home. It advances that document's central approach of preventing conflict and maintaining the capability to respond should conflict occur. It is built on the recognition that our security depends on economic strength as well as military power. And it is grounded in the conviction that investment in science and technology is central to our ability to meet the challenges ahead. This National Security Science and Technology Strategy defines new approaches to applying science and technology to the challenges that most directly affect our nation's security. This is an important policy document from the Clinton Administration. The end of the Cold War has created opportunities for greater peace and prosperity as well as new challenges to our nation's security. To seize the opportunities and meet the challenges of the post Cold War era, the Administration has developed a comprehensive approach to putting science and technology to the service of national security and global stability. This National Security Science and Technology Strategy recognizes that our nation's security rests on three pillars: the readiness and capabilities of our military forces, our engagement with other nations to prevent conflict from occurring, and the strength of our economy. The strategy supports the Administration's overall national security policies as articulated in A National Security Strategy of Engagement and Enlargement and is grounded in the conviction that advances in science and technology are a vital part of the solution to many of the problems that we face. A central theme of the Administration's national security policy is the prevention of conflict combined with a readiness to use force, should force be required. Key to this theme is a priority on engagement with other nations. Rather than isolate a state as we did the Soviet Union, we now seek to integrate states such as Russia, China, and others into a larger political and economic order, creating a web of relationships-including scientific and commercial relationships-that give us a shared interest in stability. For the past five decades, our nation's investment in its science and technology enterprise has been central to ensuring our position as a global leader. U.S. military capabilities and economic prosperity, as well as sustained global economic development are all advanced by progress in science and technology. However, the challenges of international leadership and national security are growing more complex, resulting in greater demands than ever on our investment resources. This National Security Science and Technology Strategy describes how our nation's investments in science and technology support our overall national security objectives in this evolving environment. Military capabilities second to none. Military strength is essential both to prevent and respond to conflict. Unparalleled military capabilities can dissuade an aggressor and enable the United States to act decisively in times of crisis, and t.…

Wraps. Condición: Very good. No dust jacket. Presumed first edition/first printing. [4], x,176 pages. Includes: illustrations, index. Glossary. Cover has some wear at spine and other minor wear and corner creases. The goal of the Federal High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC) Program is to accelerate the development of future generations of high performance computers and networks and the use of these resources in the Federal government and throughout the American economy. Scalable high performance computers, advanced high speed computer communications networks, and advanced software are critical components of a new National Information Infrastructure (NII). This infrastructure is essential to our national competitiveness and will enable us to strengthen and improve the civil infrastructure, digital libraries, education and lifelong learning, energy management, the environment, health care, manufacturing processes and products, national security, and public access to government information. This document was prepared to supplement the President's Fiscal Year 1994 Budget. This report describes the Federal Coordinating Council for Science, Engineering, and Technology (FCCSET) Initiative in High Performance Computing and Communications. This initiative was aimed at developing computing, communications, and software technologies for the 21st century. The HPCC Program was fully supportive of and coordinated with the National Information Initiative (NII) which was part of the President's and Vice President's Technology Initiative that was released on February 22, 1993.…

Wraps. Condición: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Format was approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. 12 pages, plus covers. Slight wear and soiling. Inside the front cover is an 8 point Action Plan Summary. In 1985 the Aeronautical Policy Review Committee--composed of sixteen leaders of government, industry, and universities--considered the evolving international agencies in aeronautics and America's future in it. In their March 1985 report, "National Aeronautical R&D Goals: Technology for America's Future", the Committee recommended that all sectors of American aeronautics direct their skills and energies toward the highest-payoff technology areas to sustain the nation's leadership position. Toward that end, three specific goals--in subsonic, supersonic, and transatmospheric flight regimes--were established. The Committee believed, in its 1987 report, that sustained U.S. leadership will require greater achievements by all sectors. The Committee believed that this challenge to our competititivenss was so important that it now issued a call to action. This sequel presents a cohesive U.S. strategy and an eight-point action plan to achieve the National Goals and remain a viable competitor in the world aviation marketplace. The Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) is a department of the United States government, part of the Executive Office of the President (EOP), established by United States Congress on May 11, 1976, with a broad mandate to advise the President on the effects of science and technology on domestic and international affairs. President Richard M. Nixon eliminated the President's Science Advisory Committee after his second Science Advisor, Edward E. David Jr., resigned in 1973, rather than appointing a replacement. The United States Congress then established the OSTP in 1976 with a broad mandate to advise the President and others within the Executive Office of the President on the effects of science and technology on domestic and international affairs. The 1976 Act also authorizes OSTP to lead interagency efforts to develop and to implement sound science and technology policies and budgets and to work with the private sector, state and local governments, the science and higher education communities, and other nations toward this end.…

Paperback. Condición: New. Issues involving science, technology, and health (STH) have moved to the forefront of the international diplomatic agenda. Other vital issues linked to technological developments pervade longer-range foreign policy concerns. Thus, STH considerations are often central to the Department of State?s bilateral and multilateral interactions with other governments. STH aspects play a large role in discussions of such critical topics as nuclear nonproliferation, use of outer space, population growth, adequate and safe food supply, climate change, infectious diseases, energy resources, and competitiveness of industrial technologies. In addressing these issues, expert STH knowledge is essential to the anticipation and resolution of problems and to the achievement of foreign policy goals. The Department, recognizing that it requires strengthened capabilities to address such an array of topics, asked for suggestions by the National Research Council as to how it could better deal with foreign policy issues with STH content.…
