From World War II to the early 1970s, social science research
expanded in dramatic and unprecedented fashion in the United
States, which became the world's acknowledged leader in the field.
This volume examines how, why, and with what consequences this
rapid and yet contested expansion depended on the entanglement of
the social sciences with the Cold War. Utilizing the controversial
but useful concept of "Cold War Social Science," the contributions
gathered here reveal how scholars from established disciplines and
new interdisciplinary fields of study made important contributions
to long-standing debates about knowledge production, liberal
democracy, and human nature in an era of diplomatic tension and
ideological conflict.
