Excerpt from U. S: Foreign Policy and the Soviet Union The purposes of foreign policy-any foreign policy - are to protect and preserve a nation and its institutions and to further its goals. Today, in the case of the United States, this means guaranteeing our survival in a thermonuclear age and at the same time guarding us and our ideals against inroads by communism. It is difficult to avoid the conclusion that us. Policy has been dangerously inadequate on both counts ever since World War II. With the praiseworthy objective of promoting American security, us. Policy has been devoted primarily to ways and means of containing the Soviet Union as well as Communist influence generally. And what has happened? During the past fifteen years the Soviet Union has steadily grown not only in economic and military power but also in world influence, while the area domi nated by communism has expanded.

Never before in the' history of mankind has so much been at stake in the relations between two nations as is at stake today in relations between the United States and the Soviet Union. Never before, and unless we are both wise and fortunate perhaps never again. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
