Product Description
Here is an authoritative and historical analysis of international relations during the Cold War and its aftermath. In one volume, it both describes and interprets events since 1945 for an undergraduate audience. It explores how the Cold War impacted upon world politics as a whole, but also deals with such important regional problems as the Middle East wars, the development of European integration and the end of the European empires in Africa and Asia.
While focusing on political change, careful attention is paid to the evolution of the global economy and the interplay between international and domestic developments, as well as to the growth of 'interdependence'. Particular attention is paid to the role of the United States, particularly in the 1990s when it became the world's only Superpower.
The text covers the nature of the Cold War, the development of the Western and Eastern blocs, North-South, decolonization and Third World issues, international economic relations, armaments and nuclear strategy and globalisation.
Features include overviews of each section
