Peace 'Politics'

In: Politics, Band 11, Heft Apr 91

Abstract

Reviews James Hinton's Politics and visions which deals with the concept of 'imperialist pacifism'. Hinton argues that CND and the peace movement generally failed to grasp that Britain's position as a middle-ranking power gave it only a limited leverage position. Argues that Hinton misses how peace movement activites were vital in the lead-up to the INF treaty, and their educative role in enlightening both sides in the Cold War. (SJK)
