In this paper we study the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Dirac equation in the
Sobolev space $H^s$. We prove the existence and uniqueness of global solutions
for small data in $H^s$ with $s>1$. The method of proof is based on the
Strichartz estimate of $L^2_t$ type for Dirac and Klein-Gordon equations. We
also prove that the solutions of the nonlinear Dirac equation after modulation
of phase converge to the corresponding solutions of the nonlinear Schröodinger
equation as the speed of light tends to infinity.
