{"product_id":"the-prague-spring-1968-jaromir-navratl-9789637326677","title":"The Prague Spring, 1968","description":"This is the first ever documented account of a Cold War crisis as seen from both sides of the Iron Curtain. Based on unprecedented access to the previously closed archives of each member-state of the Warsaw Pact, this book offers a unique look at a deeply divisive intra-bloc crisis.\u003cbr\u003ePresented in a highly readable form, the book offers top-level documents from Kremlin Politburo meetings, multi-lateral sessions of the Warsaw Pact leading up to the decision to invade, and even transcriptions of KGB-recorded phone conversations between Leonid Brezhnev and Alexander Dubcek. Once highly classified American documents from the National Security Council, CIA, and other relevant agencies acquired through the U.S. Freedom of Information Act have also been included.\u003cbr\u003eIn order to provide a historical and political context, the editors have included an introductory essay for each section of the volume. A chronology, glossary, and bibliography offer further background information for the reader. As members of the commission appointed by V當lav Havel to investigate the events of 1967-1970, the editors have a unique Czech-Slovak perspective to offer to foreign audiences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jaromir Navrat?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9637326677\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789637326677\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Central European University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 646\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.52h x 6.64w x 1.40d","brand":"Jaromir Navrat?","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44321547976959,"sku":"9789637326677","price":50.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0e95001e-ef43-416e-abba-f10da7a9de86.jpg?v=1696331469","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-prague-spring-1968-jaromir-navratl-9789637326677","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
