U.S. General Accounting Office. Export Control Regulation Could Be Reduced Without Affecting National Security. ID-82-14. Washington, D.C.: GPO, 1982. This report examines the process of review for export applications and considers ways in which the process could be streamlined without damaging U.S. national security. The report also discusses inefficiencies in the licensing review process and government efforts to curtail illegal export activity. `'Industry is required to obtain export licenses for many more products than is necessary to protect national security. In fiscal year 1981, almost 65,000 export applications were processed but only 1 of every 17 was carefully examined by the Government. GAO found that: Almost half the export license applications received each year could be eliminated without affecting national security. There is a strong possibility for further reducing license requirements to close U.S. allies." U.S. General Accounting Office. Export Licensing: Commerce-Defense Review of Appli- cations to Certain Free World Nations. NSIAD-86-169. Washington, D.C.: GPO, 1986. This report examines export licensing at the Departments of Commerce and Defense under the terms of a January 1985 presidential directive to determine the nature and extent of differences resulting from the joint review. GAO reviewed how the Defense Department developed its recommendations and how the Commerce Department responded to these recommendations with licensing decisions. GAO found that Com- merce approved about 65 percent of the license applications that Defense wanted to deny and denied about 1 percent of the licenses that Defense wanted to approve; Defense generally based its denial recommendations on general categories of concern rather than on specific adverse information related to individual license applications, whereas Commerce made licensing decisions principally based on the latter kind of information. According to GAO, the major issue dividing Commerce and Defense was the appropriateness of issuing export licenses when the foreign purchasers planned to resell the items to customers unknown to U.S. licensing authorities.

308 APPENDIX H signs Involving Soviet Bloc Countries. ID-83-46. Washington, D.C.: GPO, 1983. Provides short case studies on the considerations and actions attendant to each of eight controver- sial export licensing decisions. In seven of the eight cases, the military risk of exporting each product or technology was recognized, deliberated, and often lessened by some means before the export was approved. In one case, military risk was not recognized, and the government licensed the export of a product containing technology critical to antisubmarine warfare. U.S. Extraterritorial Controls Dekker, W.

East-West Strategic Trade, COCOM and the Atlantic Alliance. Atlantic Papers no. 49. Paris: Atlantic Institute for International Affairs, 1983. The author notes that "the progression from control on strategic exports to the East, on which there was, and is, a substantial consensus within the [Atlantic] alliance, to controls as sanctions or penalties for Soviet political behavior, catalyzed debate within the Western Alliance on the many tough questions about East-West trade, technology transfer and export controls." This work traces the history of Western technology sales to the East and export controls, and it examines Western efforts to control the sales of strategic technology. Bertsch, Gary K., et al. East-West Technology Transfer and Export Controls. Osteuropa- Wirtschaft, June 1981. "This paper examines (1) the nature (mechanisms, level, and impact) of West to East technology transfers, (2) the performance (responsiveness and effectiveness) of the multilateral coordinating committee (COCOM) in restricting the eastward flow of technology, and (3) competing Western rationales for restricting technology transfers." The paper concludes that while COCOM's survival in the short term may rest on its ability to deal with the exigencies of the moment, its long-term effectiveness depends on agreement on a coherent, realistic export control rationale. In the absence of such agreement, any new system is likely to display many of the shortcomings of the one it replaces. Frost, Ellen L., and Angela E. Stent. "NATO's Troubles with East-West Trade." International Security 8 (Summer 1983):179-200. Argues that the NATO "alliance should thus move toward a two-track East-West trade policy, combining long-term predictability with short-term flexibility, so that the West can agree on continuity in the major security-related aspects of trade while reserving some instruments of commerce to respond to short-term political developments."

The U.S. national security export controls system—which was instituted to impede Soviet acquisition of high technology from the West—is both necessary and appropriate. Balancing the National Interest provides a thorough analysis of this controls system, examining the current system of laws, regulations, international agreements, and organizations that control the international transfer of technology through industrial channels. Foreign Affairs calls it "the best on the subject to have been published in the 40 years that the United States has exercised controls on exports that might add to Soviet power."
