Abstract "The idea that the Cold War was a natural political outcome of the Soviet Union's Communist ideology is a common one. However, this book argues that American policy was a key reason for that conflict's continuation. Its focus is on US-Soviet diplomacy in the Middle East after June 1967"- Provided by publisher.
