 ch seminar series. This paper examines the Soviet state’s contribution t
 o the liberalization of international trade from the mid-1960s to the la
 te 1970s. Looking at the USSR’s participation in the United Nations Conf
 erence on Trade and Development\, the paper complicates the view of the 
 Soviet state as a ‘liberal subject’\, an actor that always sought its se
 lf-interest\, and calls for historians of the Soviet state to engage wit
 h the political\, ideational and emotional dimensions of economic exchan
 ges to investigate the USSR’s place in the global economy.
