Détente Deception: Soviet and Western bloc Competition and the Subversion of Cold War Peace

By Douglas Rivero

This book examines the competition between the Western and Soviet blocs in the less-developed world during the final years of D tente. 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 D tente in 1979.
