The article analyses the policy and strategy of the leading Western superpower with respect to socialist Yugoslavia,
a neutral country which did not participate in military-political structures of the two opposing social and political
systems. The authors investigate the goals and problems of the American strategy concerning the Yugoslavian state
in 1960s-1970s, during the Cold War period, when Yugoslavia was considered an outpost of western interests on the
Balkans, and how the United States evaluated possible negative changes in its politics after Titos death.
