The system consisting of the 15 nations in the NATO alliance & the 8 members of the Warsaw Pact is analyzed. The ranking pattern of the nations in each alliance is examined to see to what extent the nations that are defined as big powers also rank high on all other dimensions. In general this appears to be true, but more so for the Warsaw Pact nations than for the NATO nations. A general hypothesis is tested: that the interaction between the 2 blocs will be mainly between the big powers, less from big big powers to small powers, & only very little between the small powers. This hypothesis is tested on data from 15 diff types of interaction: diplomatic relations, restrictions on diplomats, expulsion of diplomats, exchange of notes, interaction in the UN, trade agreements, trade restrictions imposed & cancelled, trade volume, cultural agreements, cultural instit's closed, visa requirements, tourist restrictions imposed & cancelled, tourist volume, & flight connections. The hypothesis is confirmed in almost all cases that involve gov initiatives, & partly disconfirmed for the cases that involve nongov'al or individual initiative, such as tourist volume. A general system of propositions re relations between 2 alliances, each headed by one or more big powers, is developed. This system together with the general findings are used to develop a system of peace proposals designed to strengthen relations between the 2 blocs & make the total system more invulnerable to violent conflict.

The interaction of France & a group of closely related nations is analyzed by methods drawn from the study of primary groups. For each pair of countries, quantitative scores are computed for relative status, amount of joint activity, mutual involvement, & the relative importance of this relationship compared to others. In addition, the choice of interaction partners is described by a sociogram. The analysis is repeated separately for 4 types of interaction: exchange of students, trade in visible commodities, exchange of printed mail, & of translated books. The resulting matrices are then analyzed & compared. The most signif finding is that perfect, or nearly perfect, status hierarchies appear. They are quite diff for each interaction field. Activity, involvement, & sociometric choice likewise order the same countries diff'ly. The findings suggest that it makes sense to discuss the interaction of nations in terms borrowed from microsociol, provided that the modes of interaction are carefully specified. HA.

A strategy for detecting the interaction effect of independent variables recently was proposed by J. N. Morgan & J. A. Sonquist (see SA 0104/E0777). The approach utilizes the AID program & requires the analyst to determine if interaction is present between 2 variables by visually inspecting a plot of average values for each category of each variable. The assumption was that no statistical test was available which would serve this purpose. This note suggests that Tukey's Test for Additivity can be used to statistically test the signif of interaction between the 2 variables. AA.
