RECENT TRENDS IN SOVIET TRADE,

Abstract

The Soviet record in East-West trade since 1953 and the salient developments in bloc trade are discussed. A detailed scrutiny of Soviet performance in trade with the free world is analyzed to evaluate Soviet claims that the USSR wants more trade as a natural adjunct of peaceful coexistence and relaxed tension. The question of whether the USSR has lately shown evidence of genuinely greater trade-mindedness than it displayed under Stalin is considered.
