Project

The Cold War as Cooperation

Overview

This project examined superpower relations during the Cold War as a cooperative effort in order to illuminate the constraints and opportunities that will influence possible superpower cooperation in the future. Defining cooperation as behaviors that acknowledge that compromise solutions to conflict are preferable to war, a group of political scientists and area specialists reexamined U.S.-U.S.S.R. relations in Eastern and Western Europe, Latin America, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
