Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cold War Endgame is the product of an unusual collaborative effort by policy makers and scholars to promote better understanding of how the Cold War ended. It includes the transcript of a conference, hosted by former Secretary of State James Baker and former Soviet Foreign Minister Alexander Bessmertnykh, in which high-level veterans of the Bush and Gorbachev governments shared their recollections and interpretations of the crucial events of 1989&–91: the revolutions in Eastern Europe; the reunification of Germany; the Persian Gulf War; the August 1991 coup; and the collapse of the USSR. Taking this testimony as a common reference and drawing on the most recent evidence available, six chapters follow in which historians and political scientists explore the historical and theoretical puzzles presented by this extraordinary transition. This discussion features a debate over the relative importance of ideas, personality, and economic pressures in explaining the Cold War's end.

Download or read book Endgame in Berlin written by William Harrington and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-27 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling tale of two former Cold Warriors, their lives and their loves, as they face off on the American-Soviet conflict's new front: industrial espionage. The Soviet Union's Council of Ministers is well aware that for all their military clout, their economy is that of a Third World nation. They recruit Colonel Nikolai Kalinin -- weary, disillusioned, but a still loyal KGB operative -- to infiltrate a multinational research corporation based in Berlin and steal the blueprint of a revolutionary new computer chip. Given the assignment of preventing the chip from falling into the wrong hands is Russ Tobin, a former Berlin Station Chief and now a senior CIA intelligence analyst, whose lethal rivalry with Kalinin goes far beyond the now-defunct ideology that once divided their nations... So begins Endgame in Berlin, not only a complex, fast-paced thriller, but also, due to the thorough research for which all William Harrington's novels are noted, an intriguing and convincing portrait of agents on both sides of the dismantled Berlin Wall as they struggle to find their niches in today's "new world order." Praise for William Harrington: "An exciting novel that nicely mixes software theory with fast-paced action." -- The Wall Street Journal "Sharply drawn and realistic." -- Kirkus Reviews "Harrington sets a dandy scene and his narrative is well-paced." -- Dayton Daily News WILLIAM HARRINGTON is a computer consultant, licensed pilot, attorney and the author of fifteen previous novels, including Virus, Oberst, For the Defense and The English Lady. He makes his home in Cos Cob, Connecticut.

Download or read book Mysteries of the Cold War written by Stephen J. Cimbala and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1999, this edited volume draws together contributors to discuss the end, management, technology and strategy of the Cold War with a focus on the USA and the Soviet Union. Mysteries of the Cold War enhances our view of decision-making by the two nations during the years 1945-1990 by revisiting some of the more important ‘policy puzzles’ or decision-making anomalies of that period. Among the case studies considered by academics and other expert analysts are: the 1961 Berlin crisis at ‘Checkpoint Charlie’; Soviet research and development into post-nuclear advanced technology weapons; US and Soviet maritime strategy; Soviet ‘internationalism’ and its role in Cold War policy; the ‘endgame’ of the Cold War and why it turned out that way. Included among the contributing authors are persons who spent major portions of their careers in the US intelligence community or elsewhere in the government.

This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how and why the dangerous yet seemingly durable and stable world order forged during the Cold War collapsed in 1989, and how a new order was improvised out of its ruins. It is an unusual blend of memoir and scholarship that takes us back to the years when the East-West conflict came to a sudden end and a new world was born. In this book, senior officials and opinion leaders from the United States, Russia, Western and Eastern Europe who were directly involved in the decisions of that time describe their considerations, concerns, and pressures. They are joined by scholars who have been able to draw on newly declassified archival sources to revisit this challenging period.
Download or read book US Military Strategy and the Cold War Endgame written by Stephen J. Cimbala and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 1995 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transition from the end of the Cold War to a new world order is both promising and perilous. The US and its NATO allies were caught largely unprepared by the rapid collapse of the Warsaw Pact, the sudden demise of the Soviet Union and the reunification of Germany - events that redrew the map of East Central Europe and shifted US security concerns eastward in Eurasia. They also redefined security as a condition based more on the prevention or containment of regional and civic conflicts, compared with the Cold War expectations of global or nuclear war. The next century is certain to strain US and NATO strategy considerably, if indeed NATO survives at all. A new group of interstate institutions for European security will compete for the right to claim pre-eminence in security issues. International peace-keeping and peace enforcement, whether United Nations-directed or regionally sponsored, will also challenge traditional definitions or military missions. Changes will also occur in the role of nuclear weapons in military strategy. US and Russian strategic nuclear forces will be drastically reduced, and both states will take other steps to dampen the nuclear arms race. The antagonists of the Cold War will be the collaborators of the next century in seeking to stabilize conflicts inside and outside Europe.
Download or read book The Grand Chessboard written by Zbigniew Brzezinski and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bestselling author and eminent foreign policy scholar Zbigniew Brzezinski's classic book on American's strategic mission in the modern world. In The Grand Chessboard, renowned geostrategist Zbigniew Brzezinski delivers a brutally honest and provocative vision for American preeminence in the twenty-first century. The task facing the United States, he argues, is to become the sole political arbiter in Eurasian lands and to prevent the emergence of any rival power threatening our material and diplomatic interests. The Eurasian landmass, home to the greatest part of the globe's population, natural resources, and economic activity, is the "grand chessboard" on which America's supremacy will be ratified and challenged in the years to come. In this landmark work of public policy and political science, Brzezinski outlines a groundbreaking and powerful blueprint for America's vital interests in the modern world. In this revised edition, Brzezinski addresses recent global developments including the war in Ukraine, the re-emergence of Russia, and the rise of China.
