Subject matter of the study, divided into two parts, comprises the issues of the position and role of Czechoslovakia within the military-political aspects and military aspects of the process of releasing the tension between the East and West in the 1980’s, leading to the end of the Cold War. The author is solving the issues raised mostly on the background of relations development between the Soviet Union and USA, especially at the level of activities of both powers in the military-security area. The study is based on an extensive research in military as well as civil archives, with focus on the funds of central military and party authorities in the Czechoslovakia in the period in question. The author has consistently and systematically utilized the “treasure” of the so far unknown documents or the ones known barely.
