Produktbeschreibung
Moreover, Gaddis questions our inability to foresee very clearly the future during these past few years. He contends that we understood much less about this conflict than we realized, and may, in turn, face even greater surprises - not all of them pleasant - in the Cold War's aftermath. He points to the fact that we are, on the whole, greatly unmoved by this victory and possibly unprepared to deal with the inevitable challenges ahead, both national and international.
The book contains significant new interpretations of the American style in foreign policy, the objectives of containment, the role of morality, nuclear weapons, and intelligence and espionage in Washington's conduct of the Cold War. It reassesses, in ways sure to be controversial, the leadership of two distinctive cold warriors, John Foster Dulles and Ronald Reagan.
