商品簡介
In his introduction the author summarizes his study stating that he uses "...Anglo-Swiss arms sales during the early Cold War to explore four areas of historical debate: Anglo-Swiss relations, arms and technology transfers, neutrality, and Britain's great power role." Wyss (Center for Security Studies, ETH Zurich) based this book on his PhD thesis (2011: history and politics: universities of Neuchatel, Switzerland and Nottingham, UK). He drew on large amounts of archival research to discover the details of Berne's weapons purchases and London's arms sales and the motivations of the players, gleaning from this investigation some insight into the sustainability of neutrality during East-West conflict.
