...cold war, and the West's strategists have studied every scrap of evidence to help map its dimensions. The split was papered over at the meeting of all the world's 81 Communist parties in Moscow last winter.

Writing in the London Sunday Times, Polish-born Kremlinologist Isaac Deutscher revealed an astonishingly bitter, point-by-point indictment of Peking policy "just sent out from Khrushchev's offices in Moscow to the headquarters o-f several foreign Communist parties."

Like Lippmann in The Public Philosophy, Kennan moans about democracies liability to pursue an effective foreign policy, but he gives no realistic suggestion as to how this can be corrected...
