ORIGINS OF THE COLD WAR
Reviews of the first edition:
‘An excellent collection, which offers works with which students would be
unfamiliar. The articles demonstrate a real commitment to international
history.’
Robert L. Beisner, The American University, Washington DC
‘A fresh collection of stimulating and impressive essays. This book will be
of great value not only to students of the subject but to those teaching.’
John A. Thompson
, St Catharine’s College, Cambridge
The Cold War dominated the world political arena for forty-five years. Focusing on
the international system and on events in all parts of the globe, Melvyn P. Leffler
and David S. Painter have brought together a truly international collection of articles
that provide a fresh and comprehensive analysis of the origins of the Cold War.
Moving beyond earlier controversies, this edited collection focuses on the inter-
action between geopolitics and threat perception, technology and strategy, ideology
and social reconstruction, national economic reform and patterns of international
trade, and decolonization and national liberation. The editors also consider how and
why the Cold War spread from Europe to Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin
America and how groups, classes, and elites used the Cold War to further their own
interests.
This second edition brings the collection right up to date, including the newest
research from the Communist side of the Cold War and the most recent debates on
culture, race, and the role of intelligence analysis. Also included is a completely new
section dealing with the Cold War crises in Iran, Turkey, and Greece and a guide
to further reading.
