| Tóm tắt: | This book is a comprehensive A-to-Z reference to the nearly 50 years of this historical era. It covers the political, military and economic aspects of the struggle, with particular attention to the events of the late 1940s and 1950s that did so much to determine the fate of nations in the decades to come. It also deals with the effects of the Cold War on the domestic politics of the United States - and vice versa - and of other countries. From Roosevelt and Staline to Bush and Gorbachev, from the Marshall Plan and the imposition of Stalinism in Eastern Europe to the European Union and the collapse of the Communist bloc; from Italy to Korea to Suez to the Congo to VietNam to Afghanistan to Yugoslavia; from the Berlin Airlift to Star Wars, the book chronicles the significant terms, events, places, institutions and individuals in the long history of this immense, complex global conflict. In nearly 700 lucid and succinct entries, this book provides an ideal introduction and useful ready reference to the history of our time |
