This thesis examines the question of the scarcity of strategic raw materials and the potential for the interruption or cut-off in the supply of these raw materials to the members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Strategic raw materials are defined as those raw materials that are essential to national defense and consist of bauxite, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, manganese, mercury, natural rubber, nickel, phosphate rock, platinum, tin, tungsten, and zinc. Once the potential for cut-off of these materials is determined, the thesis examines several possible courses of action available to NATO to insure an adequate supply of strategic raw materials in view of the fact that most of these materials are located outside of NATO.
