This is a welcome book in many ways… [a] deeply researched book which, thanks in part to its impressive documentary base, succeeds in showing not only the complicated political developments occurring within the NAM but also the pressures exerted on the organization by other international political movements ... Required reading for anyone who wishes to understand the NAM on its own terms.

Carolien Stolte, Leiden University, The Netherlands, Journal of Contemporary History

In this deeply researched volume, Jovan Cavoški restores the almost forgotten Non-Alignment Movement to its rightful place in history. A product of the Cold War, NAM served the Global South as forum to discuss and push its concerns. Cavoški's superb book opens a much needed perspective on the Cold War outside of the superpower paradigm.

Through extensive, inventive, and truly global research, Jovan Cavoški has produced an essential international history of the Non-Aligned Movement, prying back the curtain to offer an incisive account of the organization's heated internal politics. This book is an invaluable addition to the history of the Third World project.

At a moment when new great power rivalries are emerging, here is a well-informed history of how the Non-Aligned Movement has attempted to steer clear of entanglements with the power blocs and set out alternatives to a divided world.

O.A. Westad, Elihu Professor of History, Yale University, USA

[T]he book is... a very valuable reference point for historians of the Cold War and analysts of global South collective action and summitry in global affairs. Readers will gain a better understanding of non-alignment as a policy and as an institutionalized movement.
