This book brings together cutting-edge scholarship from the United
States and Europe to address political as well as cultural
responses to both the arms race of the 1980s and the ascent of
nuclear energy as a second, controversial dimension of the nuclear
age. Diverse in its topics and disciplinary approaches, Nuclear
Threats, Nuclear Fear and the Cold War of the 1980s makes a
fundamental contribution to the emerging historiography of the
1980s as a whole. As of now, the era's nuclear tensions have been
addressed by scholars mostly from the standpoint of security
studies, focused on the geo-strategic deliberations of political
elites and at the level of state policy. Yet nuclear anxieties, as
the essays in this volume document, were so pervasive that they
profoundly shaped the era's culture, its habits of mind, and its
politics, far beyond the domain of policy.
