This review is from: Sino-Soviet Normalization and Its International Implications, 1945-1990 (Jackson School Publications in International Studies) (Hardcover)
An irony of this book is in its very title. The Soviet Union last only one year past the end of the period surveyed. The book's current value is in its thoughtful survey of the many twists in the Soviet Union and China's relationship prior to 1990. A reader will catch a whiff of a bygone era. Contrasted to the book's period, the Soviet Union's breakup was a huge strategic gain for China, by immensely reducing the size of the Soviet/Russian economy relative to China's.Plus, China's economy has grown significantly since 1990, and is now heavily business oriented. The book describes a different, poorer China. An updated version of this book might be appreciated by some readers, to document the new developments. |
