This insightful analysis examines the intricate relationship between the two nations through a comprehensive examination of four significant conflicts: Angola, Ethiopia, Grenada, and Nicaragua. What emerges is a clear picture of Cuba as a largely autonomous actor in international relations, characterized by bilateral influence flowing in both directions. It is important to note that Western reactions to Cuban and Soviet activities in the Third World are often influenced by misperceptions, stemming from a lack of comprehensive understanding and awareness of the complex dynamics at play.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Soviet Union and Cuba (1987) is a seminal work that examines the thesis that Cuba acted as an extension of Soviet foreign policy or surrogate of the USSR in the Third World.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book delves into the intricate relationship between the two nations through a comprehensive examination of four significant conflicts: Angola, Ethiopia, Grenada, and Nicaragua.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat emerges is a clear picture of Cuba as a largely autonomous actor in international relations, characterized by bilateral influence flowing in both directions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is important to note that Western reactions to Cuban and Soviet activities in the Third World are often influenced by misperceptions, stemming from a lack of comprehensive understanding and awareness of the complex dynamics at play.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 371g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032393636\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Shearman","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105180283130,"sku":"9781032393636","price":101.73,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1673618143206_book.jpg?v=1674084545","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-soviet-union-and-cuba-9781032393636","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
