............. Much has been written about how the global power that came to dominate the post-war world got its way against the older power that was soon to be cut down to size by decolonization. But the transcripts also show how the Indians punched way above their weight. So did delegates from Belgium, Cuba, Czechoslovakia, Greece and Norway, according to the editors of the transcripts. One issue should interest all those who currently worry that the New Development Bank that will be set up by the Brics nations will be a tool of Chinese hegemony.................
