“China and Yugoslavia had a peculiar relationship during the Cold War, the effect of which, in addition to themselves directly, was felt throughout the world. By investigating Sino-Yugoslavian relations, the scholars who worked on this project were able to show how strong this effect was.” (Liu Zuokui, Institute of European Studies, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences).
“The book reflects state-of-the-art research on the Cold War. Namely, it does not focus primarily on the rivalry of antagonistic ideological systems and blocs; rather, it considers the dynamics, driving forces, scope and consequences of trans-bloc exchange processes through the lenses of the two states under consideration.” (Marie-Janine Calic, Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich).
