Stalinism for All Seasons by Vladimir Tismăneanu

See: Günter Bischof, ‘No Action: The Johnson Administration and the Warsaw Pact Invasion of Czechoslovakia in August 1968’, in The Prague Spring and the Warsaw Pact Invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968, eds. Recent works also emphasised that a similar perception also existed in the West, where at various levels the Soviets were warned against an intervention in Romania. The idea was previously argued in: Dennis Deletant, Romania under Communist rule (Bucharest: Center for Romanian Studies, 1999), 114–115. The risk of a Soviet intervention directed against Romania, as well, was perceived not only in Bucharest, but also abroad.
