The conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union during
the Cold War has long been understood in a global context, but
Jeremy Friedman's Shadow Cold War delves deeper into the era to
examine the competition between the Soviet Union and the People's
Republic of China for the leadership of the world revolution. When
a world of newly independent states emerged from decolonization
desperately poor and politically disorganized, Moscow and Beijing
turned their focus to attracting these new entities, setting the
stage for Sino-Soviet competition. Based on archival research from
ten countries, including new materials from Russia and China, many
no longer accessible to researchers, this book examines how China
sought to mobilize Asia, Africa, and Latin America to seize the
revolutionary mantle from the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union
adapted to win it back, transforming the nature of socialist
revolution in the process. This groundbreaking book is the first to
explore the significance of this second Cold War that China and the
Soviet Union fought in the shadow of the capitalist-communist
clash.
