Abstract:There is a degree of similarity in the substance of the policies of the Soviet Union and the United States and in their approaches to the question of order versus justice in the Third World. This similarity is probably nowhere more in evidence than in the remarkably parallel attitudes adopted by them to the recent crises in the Horn of Africa and the Persian Gulf. The two super-powers firmly came down - the USA in the case of iran, the USSR in the case of Ethiopia - in favour of the established political order and agains the demands of political and economic justice.
