The 1950 Treaty of Friendship between the Soviet Union and China aimed to promote cultural and technological cooperation, marking a departure from colonial influences. However, Austin Jersild contends that the alliance faltered due to persistent Russian imperialism, resulting in growing frustration among the Chinese towards their Soviet counterparts. The book explores the complexities of this historical relationship and the impact of imperial legacies on international alliances.
