Serious debates and discussions on world politics in Russian
journals and books have greatly increased since 1956, resulting in
a steadily changing appraisal of the world political situation by
the Russians. Professor Zimmerman studies that changing appraisal.
He describes Soviet international relations perspectives during
Khrushchev's years in power and the three years following. He
uncovers the answers Soviet commentators implicitly or explicitly
give to such questions as: Who, in the Soviet view, are the main
actors in international politics, and what does identifying them
suggest about the Soviet perspective? In the Soviet analysis, what
is the global distribution of power? How do Soviet analysts
characterize the capabilities, motives, and decision-making process
of the United States? Contents: I. Introduction. II. The Emergence
of International Relations as a Discipline. III. The Actors. IV.
The Hierarchy. V. The Distribution of Power. VI. United States
Foreign Policy from the Soviet Perspective. VII. The Balance of
Power as System and Policy. VIII. Post-Imperialism and the
Transformation of Soviet Foreign Policy. Originally published in
1969. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
