Editorial Reviews

Review

"All in all, this collection of essays represents an important contribution to a fuller understanding of the Cold War. To make the connection between the decisions of those in power and the ordinary people the decisions affect is a worthy and valuable direction for the future of diplomatic history." -- Mark Carson, Journal of Cold War Studies

"This will be a welcome addition to the new cold war history, both as a contribution to internationalizing that conflict and also because of the bottom-up, social history approach that provides the basic framework for the chapters." -- Thomas Zeiler, University of Colorado at Boulder

"[I]lluminating in its description of the mechanisms and contradictions of Cold War alliances between international powers and local actors." -- War in History

"Presents both new and little-known material and presents a fresh, compelling way to look at the Cold War. This collection of essays will contribute significantly to our understanding of the Cold War, and of diplomatic and international history in general." -- Andrew Preston, Cambridge University
