Abstract: World governments have traditionally been responsive, in a variety of ways, to public pressure in the area of domestic issues; but with trends toward global interdependence and massive advances in communications technology, governmental leaders must be increasingly sensitive to their constituents' desires and concerns in the field of international relations. An important recent example of this phenomenon is embodied in the 1975 Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE). This article explores how nongovernmental individuals and groups have impacted this significant 35-nation agreement which is a symbol of the long-term process of East-West détente.
