New conflicts emerged in international politics after the end of WWII, as tensions built between East and West, and relations between North and South were characterized first by decolonization and then by economic inequality. This updated third edition of one of the leading works on the political history of the post-war era offers a clearly written overview of the subject for students and general readers alike.
