Description - The Crisis of Detente in Europe by Leopoldo Nuti
This book of essays by an international array of scholars analyses the reheating of the Cold war in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The transition from detente to a new phase of harsh confrontation and severe crises is an interesting, indeed crucial, phase of the evolution of the international system. This volume is the first to move into a detailed exploration of the last phase of the Cold War. It seeks to move beyond existing interpretations of this period by presenting the pioneering result of new research in the field. In particular, the book is designed to work towards a new narrative that accounts for the fact that several critical new aspects and factors emerged during the years from 1975 to 1985 -- a time that changed the nature of the international system, altered the terms of the relationship between the blocs and brought to the fore issues and problems that are still with us today. One of the key features of the book is its attention to trace the roots of the contemporary international system to the developments of the late 1970s and early 1980s. This book will be of much interest to scholars of the Cold War, international history, strategic studies and IR in general.
