This article argues that significant political, economic, and social changes within Salvadoran society and changes in the world arena permitted reconciliation between the Salvadoran government and the insurgents of the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN). The negotiated peace was based on contending parties' perceptions that each could claim victory and that society had been transformed sufficiently to permit an acceptable future. The U.S. government's support for the Salvadoran government and the peace process, for reasons of both national security and the promotion of democracy and human rights, was vindicated. Salvadoran society is progressing toward the end state envisioned by the U.S. government and by Salvadoran democrats. The 1994 presidential elections included all political parties, and the FMLN established itself for the time being as the nation's second-strongest political force in the democratic process. Continued economic development and consolidation of democratic society depend on maintaining the expansion of opportunities for historically excluded sectors of society.

The end of the cold war does not necessarily mean the end of the social and political instability that can lead to low-intensity conflicts. This book provides fresh insights into a difficult subject by bringing together knowledgeable contributors who have the academic expertise, operational experience, and strategic perspective essential to underst

The US & the rest of the international community will inevitably face horrible new dilemmas at home & abroad that stem from current & potential nuclear powers, & many smaller -- but equally deadly -- nontraditional threats that are generated out of the unevenness of global integration. Thus, the US faces a challenge to change perspectives. This may be accomplished within the context of a holistic implementation of direct & indirect "offensive" (ie, proactive preventive diplomacy) & "defensive" (ie, generally military) actions. In turn, that would involve the development of a central unifying field theory of deterrence to replace the theory of containment; a thoughtful reorganization of national security management, coordination, & implementation structures; & farsighted research & planning mechanisms to give decisionmakers & policymakers viable deterrence options as they pertain to the various discrete actors that abound in the world today.
