Stephen Long challenges the accepted view that the US accepted a post-World War II ordering of Europe which placed the East outside an American sphere of influence . He argues instead that disorder prevailed over design in the planning and organization of espionage during the early stages of the Cold War. Featuring new archival material, and unpicking the relationship between the CIA, the US government and the Soviet Union, The CIA and the Soviet Bloc sheds new light on espionage, the Cold War, US diplomatic history and the history of 20th century Europe.
