The importance of considering radiological defense measures as an interrelated system rather than as a collection of individual measures is emphasized. In discussing the radiological defense system, the defense problem is divided into three time phases: emergency, operational recovery and final recovery. The objectives and measures of effectiveness in each phase are discussed. Countermeasures are classified as to type. The concept of a central countermeasure type in each phase is introduced. Central countermeasures are selected and their interactions are discussed. It is concluded that failure to recognize the interactions between countermeasures is resulting in development of countermeasures on incompatible grounds.
