...mistake, says Harvard Political Scientist Henry Kissinger, to think of peace as some final state of nirvana that beckons seductively somewhere around the bend. "We have to get rid of the idea that there is some terminal date," he says, "after which we live with a consciousness of harmony." In fact, Moscow and Washington seem to have come to much the same conclusion. "The Russians," notes an American delegate to the 18-nation Geneva disarmament conference, "can be bitchy about Berlin or Czechoslovakia while at the same time wanting to move ahead on disarmament."
