Description
This book is aimed at presenting fresh views, interpretations, and reinterpretations of some already researched issues relating to the Yugoslav foreign policy and international relations up to year 1991. Yugoslavia positioned itself as a communist state that was not under the heel of the Soviet diplomacy and policy and as such was perceived by the West as an acceptable partner and useful tool in counteracting the Soviet influence.
Reviews / Votes
"With highly interesting insights into new and old topics of Yugoslavia's foreign policy, the book provides an important contribution to the research on the non-aligned and socialist country while historians wait for more archival documents from its final days to be accessible and analysed to further complete the "puzzle" that was Yugoslavia."
