Soviet and Western bloc Competition and the Subversion of Cold War Peace

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the competition between the Western and Soviet blocs in the less-developed world during the final years of Détente. Rivero assesses if the Soviet bloc pushed for strategic gains in the Third World and whether this contributed to the U.S. decision to abandon Détente in 1979.
