Items related to Superpower Detente (RIIA)
Superpower Detente is an outstanding assessment of the highs and lows in the relationship between the two superpowers in the 1970s, and the prospects for a continuing detente between them in the 1980s.
This thorough examination of the 1970s reminds us that improvements early in that decade gave way to stalemate and the demise of detente. The early 1970s saw the most far reaching moves toward detente since the inception of the Cold War. But, Bowker and Williams suggest, the coincidence of interests between the superpowers hid divergent conceptions of what detente was and what kind of behaviour it required.

Review:
`Although the Cold War is over and the Soviet Union no longer exists, this book is still important as it provides a thoughtful and critical analysis of the events that can be used as a lesson for today's relations among states' - Muslim World Book Review `... the book is a timely work, deserving of a wide readership... It is encouraging that in a period when `contemporary history' has gone into something of a decline... a book of this sort is written. The objective approach of the two authors, their willingness to analyse Soviet policies as well as those of the US... their clarity of expression and their breadth of vision are also to be admired... It is a book well-written, well structured and well-judged.' Millennium
