Full Description
This book explores Yugoslavia's expulsion from the Soviet Cominform and its broader impact on international politics. Although being acknowledged as a crucial turning point during the Cold War, the split between Josip Broz Tito and Joseph Stalin in 1948 has not been widely investigated in historical research. Drawing on archival sources, the authors demonstrate the continuing historical relevance of this event to Europe's contemporary diplomatic landscape. Providing different lenses through which to understand the impact of the Split on international affairs, the significance of Tito and Stalin's conflict in the post-war years is emphasised. The collection is divided into two parts, the first covering the regional dynamics of the Split in the Balkans and Eastern Europe, and the second discussing the consequences for international relations. Bringing together recognised experts from around the world, this book offers an international perspective on the events and aftermath of the 1948 split. A fresh account of a renowned event in history, this book is a welcome contribution to Cold War studies and will be of particular interest to those researching European diplomatic history, post-war politics and the history of Communism.
