Description
Despite glasnost and other positive steps, the Soviet Union continues to try to spread communism. In five wars on four continents - in Afghanistan, Angola, Cambodia, Mozambique, and Nicaragua - the USSR is committed to defeating armed resistance to new Communist regimes, established during Detente in the 1970s. A new historical phenomenon, armed anti-Communist movements like UNITA in Angola, challenge the basic belief of Marxism-Leninism - that the Communist world revolution will triumph. To stop these movements, the USSR uses diplomacy and propaganda as well as force to isolate them from the free world. This book offers the most thorough account of these struggles.
