The book provides a major reassessment of the global origins and impact of Tricontinentalism. As Cold War interventions revealed the limits of decolonization, socialist revolutions in Asia, Africa, and Latin America used armed revolts and confrontational diplomacy to challenge the United States and the inequitable international system it supported.
A major reassessment of the rise and global impact of revolutionary Third World radicalism in the 1960s and 1970s.
'An excellent introduction to the Third World alternative to the Cold War, from The League against Imperialism via the Tricontinental Conference to the Palestinian solidarity movement. There is so much to learn from this book for those interested in the history of anti-imperialist politics.' O. A. Westad, author of The Cold War: A World History
