This book examines the global history of the Cold War in the 1970s
through the perspective of Yugoslavia's activism in the Global
South and its relations with the superpowers. The author shows that
Yugoslavia's anxiety over a "new Yalta" required a disruptive role
toward detente, which it saw as the superpowers' attempt to divide
the spheres of influence. Yugoslavia's global activism in the 1970s
reflected not only its desire to undermine alleged superpowers'
agreements but also its desire to promote the Yugoslav
revolutionary model as a distinctive form of political, social, and
economic organization. The author traces the complex interactions
between Yugoslavia and the world but also investigates the
limitations of Yugoslavia's global activism. Drawing on a novel and
wide source base from the archives in the former Yugoslavia, the
United States, and Great Britain, the book shows the web of
opportunities, problems, and challenges that detente and the Cold
War in the 1970s offered to and imposed on a small state in the
Balkans.
