RUSI Defence Studies
2 total works
The Institute which launched this study is committed to two propositions: that military exerts a profound influence on the course and pattern of world politics; and that to be properly understood - or effectively employed - military power cannot be divorced from the social and political context in which it operates. This volume represents the culmination of an RUSI Main Theme study; "Soviet Power and Prospects". Out of an assortment of lectures that structured the Institute's work, the small number presented in Part 2 have been chosen with an eye to gaps in the author's presentation and to approaches which contrast with the author's.
