The Cold War began in the aftermath of World War II. Ideological division rose from the victorious Allies: capitalism versus communism; a race seeking global influence between the United States and the Soviet Union. However there was a movement of countries who did not want any part of choosing sides: the Non-Alignment Movement. In this episode, we cover how a group of nations rose to confront the US-Soviet rivalry and established the Non-Alignment Movement as a “third road” in geopolitics, all from the perspective of America’s Foreign Service Officers.
