  An account of East-West relations from 1945 to 1991, exploring the causes and consequences of the bipolarisation of international politics between the western powers and the Soviet bloc. Starting with the domestic background in both USSR and USA, it takes the story through the postwar transition, Korea, the Khruschev years, Vietnam, the fluctuations of detente in the 1960s and 70s, Gorbachev, and Soviet collapse. It then focuses on the European experience of Communism in the postwar era, before concluding with general perspectives on the Cold War.
