The Soviet Union, Austria, and Neutrality, 1955-1991 /Wolfgang MuellerVerlag der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften2011Vienna :Verlag der Ã-sterreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften,2011.1 online resource (384 p.)Zentraleuropa-Studien9783700168980 3700168985 This monograph, based on newly declassified sources from Western and Russian archives as well as on communist texts about international law and neutrality, is the first English-language account of Soviet policy towards neutral yet capitalist Austria during the Cold War. In order to make neutrality a model for the West, the Kremlin presented the unique Soviet-Austrian relationship as "a good example of peaceful coexistence" and a showcase for the benefits a Western state might reap by declaring neutrality. This honor, however, had strings attached: The communist doctrine of neutrality contained obligations that were expected to make it possible to exploit neutral states as instruments of Soviet policy and bring them nearer the socialist bloc.History / ModernbisacshHistorySoviet UnionRelationsAustriaAustriaRelationsSoviet UnionHistory / ModernHistory.Mueller Wolfgang935296ScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910255444303321A Good Example of Peaceful Coexistence?2564398UNINA
