This comprehensive text provides a balanced survey of the Cold War
in a genuinely global framework. Presenting not only Soviet and
Western perspectives, but also the outlooks of peoples and leaders
throughout Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America, Edward
H. Judge and John W. Langdon offer in-depth treatment of
imperialism, anti-imperialism, decolonization, national liberation
struggles, and their Cold War connections. The authors explore the
background and context for all major developments during the era,
as well as capsule biographies and character analyses of key
figures. Tracing the Cold War from its roots in East-West tensions
before and during World War II through its origins in the immediate
postwar era, the book concludes with the Cold War's legacy, which
continues today. Written in a clear and lively style, this
compelling text will bring the era to life for readers who didn't
experience its dramas and crises directly.
