Pages 3-28 | Published online: 08 Dec 2014
 

Abstract

Hardly anyone doubts nowadays which of the postwar international crises was the most acute and most dangerous to world peace. Beyond question, this was the Caribbean crisis of 1962 or, as it is sometimes called in the West — particularly in the United States — the "Cuban," "missile" crisis. This brief international crisis, which would have been fraught with colossal danger if it had gotten out of control, has had no equal in the past 25 years.
