INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS SINCE 1945

NOTE EDITORE

A one-volume authoritative historical analysis of international relations during the Cold War and its aftermath. It explores the impact of the Cold War on world politics as a whole, but also deals with such important regional problems as the Middle East wars, the development of European integration and the end of the European empires in Africa and Asia. Particular attention is paid to the role of the United States, especially in the 1990s when it became the world's only Superpower.
