SUMMARY:Book Talk - Spies: The Epic Intelligence War Between East and West
DESCRIPTION:\n  \n \n  \nSpies: The Epic Intelligence War Between East and West tells the story of a century-long espionage war between Russia and the West. In Walton’s telling\, the Cold War began earlier than is widely understood and extended beyond the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991\, fueled by an asymmetric conflict of espionage\, subversion\, and sabotage. Walton’s deeply researched account also serves as a prologue to the current geopolitical moment in which\, he argues\, the Cold War never ended and a new\, even more complex clash is unfolding with China. \nOn October 23\, Professor Walton joined Reiss Center Faculty Co-Director Stephen Holmes in conversation about Spies and the deep roots of our current moment. \n  \n \n \n \n  \nEvent Details \nMonday\, October 23\, 2023 \nSnow Dining Room\, Vanderbilt Hall\, 40 Washington Sq.
