The Warsaw Pact Reconsidered

This book examines the impact that the Warsaw Pact inadvertently had on the non-Soviet Warsaw Pact (NSWP) members, by providing an opportunity to assert their own interests, emancipate themselves from the Soviet grip, and influence Warsaw Pact policy. By analysing archival evidence and examining the Soviet alliance from a fresh perspective, the book is a significant contribution to New Cold War history, and offers new insights into the multilateral dynamics of power within the Soviet bloc
