Description
Focusing on the period during the 1964-1980 Indochina wars, this book examines the ""big power"" triangular relationship involving China, the Soviet Union and the United States. The author challenges the myth that, during the Nixon years, this strategic triangle was efficient in its efforts to halt the Vietnam War, and argues that, on the contrary, the triangle was restrictive, or at best had limited capability to manipulate the situation. This analysis, including a discussion of smaller triangles at work within the larger, is not only a history of the Indochina wars, but also can be applied to other triangular relationships, such as the emerging economic triangle incorporating Taiwan, Hong Kong and China.
