America's Unstable Soviet Policy
What has caused the deterioration of relations between the United States and the Soviet Union since 1974? George F. Kennan argues that it has had less to do with external reality than with the shifting impulses of the American political establishment. Mr. Kennan, a Foreign Service officer for twenty-six years and a former ambassador to the Soviet Union and to Yugoslavia, is one of the leading Western scholars of Russian affairs. He is the author of numerous books, including Realities of American foreign Policy, Russia and the West Under Lenin and Stalin, and The Nuclear Delusion, and has won two Pulitzer Prizes and two National Book Awards. He is now professor emeritus at the Institute for Advanced Study, at Princeton University.
