The Political and Moral Imperatives of the Bandung Conference of 1955

"Now fifty years on, with significantly more primary sources available, Kweku Ampiah's study provides a much-needed in-depth re-evaluation of the conference as a whole, focusing in particular on the external influences and preoccupations impacting on the participants, seen through the case studies of the US, UK and Japan. Described as an epiphany for the Asian and African countries craving post-war independence from foreign domination, the Bandung Conference of 1955 caused a storm in international politics of the mid-1950s. As a precursor to the Non-Aligned Movement, the conference created a sense of critical mass between the stales that became known as the 'Third World' and the West in what was subsequently referred to as North-South relations." "The volume will be of particular interest to scholars and students of International Politics, Post-war Diplomatic History, Decolonization, US Foreign Policy in the 1950s, Post-war Japanese Diplomacy and North-South and South-South Relations."--Jacket.
