  We study a non-local optimal control problem involving a linear, bond-based
peridynamics model. In addition to existence and uniqueness of solutions to our
problem, we investigate their behavior as the horizon parameter $\delta$, which
controls the degree of nonlocality, approaches zero. We then study a finite
element-based discretization of this problem, its convergence, and the
so-called asymptotic compatibility as the discretization parameter $h$ and the
horizon parameter $\delta$ tend to zero simultaneously.
