This book sets out to examine the policy of the British Foreign Office towards Yugoslavia and the Tito Government during this important period. Pivotal to this policy was the relationship between Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union, and its effects on Soviet-Western relations in general. Foreign Office policy towards Yugoslavia is also explored in the context of Anglo-Yugoslav relations, and the degree to which Britain's need for American financial support, as well as American commitment to the reconstruction of Western Europe, limited Britain's freedom of action.

This truly international history of Yugoslavia exposes the role played by other nations in the rise and fall of the nation. Ann Lane's argument is that the world's most powerful countries exacerbated the tensions in Yugoslavia, manipulating domestic difficulties for the purpose of power politics.
