Description

Updated to include the latest debates and newest research, this second edition of a successful book brings together a truly international collection of articles and provides a fresh and thorough analysis of the origins of the Cold War that dominated the world political arena for forty-five years. The articles 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 it to further their own interests. "The Origins of the Cold War" also examines the Communist side of the war and, concentrating on culture, race and intelligence, moves beyond earlier controversies and focuses on the interaction between: * geopolitics and threat perception * technology and strategy * idealology and social reconstruction * national economic reform and patterns of international trade * decolonization and national liberation. With a guide to further reading and a brand new section dealing with the Cold War crises in Iran, Turkey and Greece, "The Origins of the Cold War "has brought the Cold War bang up to date for today's students and scholars.
