Listen in on a debate over the economic legacy of the superpower rivalry, as featured on the weekly CNN program "Postscript" -- which accompanies the COLD WAR series.

CNN World Affairs Correspondent Ralph Begleiter, along with U.S. scholar Diane Kunz, Russian historian Vladislav Zubok and Albert Beveridge -- president of the George C. Marshall Foundation -- consider whether the world needs another Marshall Plan to aid troubled national economies.

Diane Kunz is a professor of history and international relations at Columbia University. She is the author of numerous articles, including "The Marshall Plan Reconsidered," in the May/June 1997 issue of Foreign Affairs.

Dr. Vladislav Zubok is one of the leading historians of the Cold War and the author of "Inside the Kremlin's Cold War." He has studied extensively in Soviet and American archives and has taught classes on the Cold War at Amherst College, Ohio University in Athens and Stamford University. In 1993, Zubok was employed by the Kennan Institute for Advanced Russian Studies in Washington, D.C., and since then has worked at the Norwegian Nobel Institute in Oslo and is now a fellow at the National Security Archive in Washington.

Albert Beveridge III is president and CEO of the George C. Marshall Foundation in Lexington, Virginia. The foundation is dedicated to the life and times of Gen. Marshall.
