The coming of Sino-U.S. and Soviet-U.S. detente in the early
1970's and the resulting shift in international relationships
produced a revolution in world diplomacy whose repercussions are
still being felt. The World and the Great-Power Triangles sets up a
framework for describing this dramatic change in global affairs in
terms of its implications for regional politics in key areas of the
world.In the introductory chapter, William E. Griffith analyzes
events leading to the breakup of the alignment of the cold war era
and the reaarangement of the great powers into two triangles: a
political-military grouping made up of the United States, Western
Europe, and Japan. In each of the subsequent chapters, a well-known
writer on international affairs discusses the operation of this
"triangular world politics" in his particular are of expertise. The
authors' analyses of recent history and current events illuminate
the complex ways in which national and international politics
interact. The book brings together a wealth of data and provides a
survey that should be of use to scholars and students of world
affairs."
