| Summary/Abstract |
It is not adequately appreciated that there was an unprecedented transformation of the world in the beginning of the Nineties in term of both geopolitics and economy with the result that strategic analysts are still struggling to assess the long range impact of what certainly was a sudden transition to the age of 'globalization'. Interestingly, the year 1991 will go down in history as the common cut off point for this two prong leap to a new world order. Following the success of the anti Soviet Armed campaign in Afghanistan, the politburo of the communist Party of Soviet Union (CPSU) met for the last time in April that year to discard 'democratic Centrism; and confirm the end of international Communism and the demise of the USSR as a super power.
