The 1990 Great Decisions program, part of an annual series on foreign
policy issues, is intended to create better better public
understanding through information and analyses of important
international issues. Current information is presented so that
participants may be stimulated toward discussion, form opinions and
contribute to the policy making process. The 1990 program explores
eight issues of foreign policy and international relations. The
following chapters are included: (1) "U.S.S.R. and Eastern Europe:
End of an Era?"; (2) "The U.S., Europe and Japan: Global Economy in
Transition?"; (3) "Nicaragua and El Salvador: War or Peace in Central
America?"; (4) "Vietnam, Cambodia and the U.S.: Return Engagement?";
(5) "Third World Arms Bazaar: Disaster for Sale?"; (6) "United
Nations: New Life for an Aging Institution?"; (7) "Palestinian
Question: Is There a Solution?"; and (8) "Global Warming and the
Environment: Forecast Disaster?" Each chapter concludes with
discussion questions and an annotated list of suggested readings. A
key to organizations, classified by topic, lists names, addresses,
and telephone numbers of organizations that can provide additional
information. The results of the opinion ballot from the 1989 issue
are given. Two sets of opinion ballots for 1990 topics are included,
along with a general index to Great Decisions topics from 1980
through 1989. (AS)
