Paul Henry Nitze
An unparalleled national security strategist who wielded immense influence over American military and diplomatic strategy for nearly half a century during the Cold War. As Director of Policy Planning at the State Department, he drafted National Security Council paper "NSC-68," establishing a course of overwhelming military buildup to counter the Soviet threat. He later served as Deputy Secretary of Defense and was deeply involved in the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT). Always emphasizing practical power dynamics, he was a giant among Eastern elites who theoretically supported nuclear deterrence theory and the Cold War military balance.
