Of the key terms and agreements in that arms reduction package, the ones that you should definitely memorize are: deterrence, mutually assured destruction (MAD), detente, SALT I, SALT II, Helsinki Accords, INF Treaty, START I, START II, Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI, nicknamed "Star Wars"), and the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty.
