The Superpowers explores the intertwining history of the two powers chronologically and includes discussion of: -- the inheritance of the two great powers and their imperial background -- World War One and the Russian Revolution -- Capitalism and Socialism -- World War Two and its impact -- the conflicts in Berlin, Czechoslovakia, Vietnam and Afghanistan -- Perestroika and the end of the USSR -- the significance of the events of 1991 and their legacy. This is the first history of the two major participants and their relationship throughout the twentieth century.
