Summary:"Weaving a critique of major power intervention into political history, this book provides a comprehensive overview of Cambodia from 1953 to the present. Michael Haas has been deeply and personally involved in many aspects of the recent history of the country, and his research uncovers details of 20th-century US realpolitik such as Lyndon Johnson's indiscriminate bombing of Cambodia during the Vietnam War, US funding of the Khmer Rouge in the 1980s, and the Unites States' cessation of economic control to China since the 1990s"-- Provided by publisher
