The USA's contribution to the making of the USSR was accidental. In
the belief that the Russian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic
could not survive, American statesmen strove to keep the former
Tsarist empire intact for a non-communist successor regime in the
face of attempts by other powers to carve out spheres of influence
in both European and Asiatic Russia. In this manner, they
unwittingly facilitated the formation of the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics. This book shows the importance of the 'Russian
question' at the Washington Conference and throws light on the
emergence of the 'Versailles-Washington' system of international
relations.
