Kom se privoleti bloku: jugoslovensko-kubansko rivalstvo u Pokretu nesvrstanih i globalni Hladni rat krajem 1970-ih

Abstract

This article tackles the Yugoslav–Cuban rivalry within the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) which has marked the latter half of the 1970s and it was closely related to the developments in the relationship between the two superpowers during the last phase of détente. This was a conceptual conflict between the two dominant lines within the Movement, one that advocated rapprochement with the Soviet bloc, and it was presented in the face of Cuba and its allies, while the other one, dominated by Yugoslavia and consisted of many other non-aligned countries, strived to preserve the previous non-bloc and independent orientation of this organization. This was an intensive diplomatic struggle which defined the later destiny of the NAM. This article is primarily based on the documents from the Serbian, US, British, Indian, German and Myanmar archives.
