The Soviet Union and Cold War Neutrality and Nonalignment in Europe
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-7936-3192-3 (ISBN)
The Soviet Union and Cold War Neutrality and Nonalignment in Europe examines neutral countries in Europe at a time when most contemporaries had little faith in neutrality. During the split between Western and Eastern blocs, several long-time neutral countries abandoned the policy of neutrality and joined NATO. Other countries which remained neutral were perceived as a threat to the Soviet Union’s sphere of influence. Based on extensive archival research, this volume offers state-of-the-art research about the relations between Europe’s neutral states and the Soviet Union during the Cold War and how these relations were perceived by other powers.
