Description

Explore a detailed historical analysis of Cold War security with The Defense of Western Europe: 22 from the Routledge Library Editions: Cold War Security Studies. Originally published in 1987, this book provides a deep look into the defense forces of Western Europe during a period of significant geopolitical change. As the 1980s saw the balance of power shift toward the Soviet Union, this text examines Europe's capacity for self-defense. It offers a specific look at the military landscape of the era, noting how Soviet forces held a significant advantage in tanks, artillery, and combat divisions compared to NATO. Readers will find a thorough analysis of the NATO response and the various capabilities developed to address these shifts in power. This volume is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in military history, strategy, and the security dynamics of the late 20th century.
