«La tercera posguerra» is Furio Colombo's essay, published by Tusquets Editores S.A. in paperback (252 pages, in Spanish).
Colombo reads the end of the 20th century as a third postwar period: after the two world wars and the Cold War, the fall of communism arrives without prior signs. In conversations with protagonists and witnesses such as Václav Havel, Carlos Fuentes, Ronald Reagan and Elie Wiesel, he explores the causes of the collapse and its political and social consequences.
The subtitle on the cover is «Conversaciones sobre el poscomunismo». It is volume 16 of Tusquets' Ensayo collection and was published in Barcelona in December 1991.
For readers of historical and political essays, interested in the fall of communism and the testimonies of its protagonists.
