  5. A quotation from Adlai Stevenson

    I profoundly believe that there is on this horizon, as yet only dimly perceived, a new dawn of conscience. In that purer light, people will come to see themselves in each other, which is to say they will make themselves known to one another by their similarities rather than by their differences. Man’s knowledge of things will begin to be matched by man’s knowledge of self. The significance of a smaller world will be measured not in terms of military advantage, but in terms of advantage for the human community. It will be the triumph of the heartbeat over the drumbeat.

    Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965) American diplomat, statesman
    Speech (1952-10-24), “The United Nations: Our Hope and Commitment,” United Nations Day Radio Broadcast, Springfield, Illinois

  13. Anthony Eden by V. Trukhanovsky

     

    In his monograph, V. Trukhanovsky, Corresponding Member of the USSR Academy of Sciences and a specialist on contemporary British history, presents a political biography of the famous British diplomat, Foreign Minister and Prime Minister, Anthony Eden, who played an important role in British foreign policy from the 1930s to the 1950s.

    This political portrait of Anthony Eden also serves to illustrate Anglo-Soviet, Anglo-American and Anglo-European relations, particularly in the immediate pre-war years.

    The author devotes specific attention to Eden’s political activity during the creation of the anti-Hitler coalition and in the post-war period.

    This book represents a notable contribution to the elaboration of the history of international relations, and will be of interest to the wide readership.

    Translated from the Russian by Ruth English Designed by Inna Borisova
