Rethinking the cold war

By Eric Black

Book Overview

The end of the Cold War should have been an occasion to reassess its origins, history, significance and consequences. Yet most commentators have restated positions already developed during the Cold War. They have taken the break-up of the Soviet Union, the shift toward capitalism and electoral politics in Eastern Europe and countries formerly in the USSR as evidence of a moral and political victory for the United States that needs no further elaboration.
