With this solid contribution to contemporary history the "Survey" returns to its annual basis, which was interrupted by the war, and includes again a section on Middle Eastern affairs. During the year, the author concludes, "the Communist part of the world, with its potential allies among the under-nourished and the foreign-governed, remained formidable, hostile and mysterious." And the Western Powers "seemed more inclined to wait upon events than to fashion them."
