Abstract
In 1949, one year after the break between Yugoslavia and the Cominform, we wrote: We cannot yet state as a fact that this new world order [socialism] will be one from which international enmity will have vanished, and the quarrel between Yugoslavia and the other socialist countries of eastern Europe may seem to point to an opposite conclusion. The present status of international relations, however, is so dominated by the division of the world into two systems and the preparations of both sides for a possible final conflict, and the existence of more than one socialist country is such a recent phenomenon, that we shall do well to reserve judgment on the import of the Yugoslav case.
