Cold War: Socialist and Historical Perspectives (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781647266202)

The Cold War refers to the geopolitical rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union, and their respective allies. It was pursued through political, economic and propaganda fronts and did not involve any direct military action. During the period from 1948 till 1953, the Cold War attained its peak. During this period, the Soviets unsuccessfully blockaded the Western-held sectors of West Berlin (1948-49). In 1949, the United States and its European allies formed the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), a unified military command created with intent to resist the Soviet presence in Europe. This book examines the different aspects of the Cold War. It is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the historical and socialist perspectives on this time period. It is meant for students and scholars of history who are looking for an elaborate reference text on the Cold War.
