ANTONY J. BLINKEN, who attends Columbia University Law School, was a reporter with The New Republic.
Ally Versus Ally is a richly researched and revealing account of
how disagreement can turn into acrimony and then into crisis.
Antony Blinken explains that the U.S. embargo of high technology
agianst the Soviet bloc actually worked against American interests
by hindering American competition, costing thousands of American
jobs, and losing billions of dollars in trade, without really
improving America's national security. The U.S. embargo turned out
to be more of a sanction against ourselves and our European allies
than the Soviet Union. Ally Versus Ally
