Understanding the imaginary war offers a fresh interpretation of
the Cold War as an imaginary war, a conflict that had imaginations
of nuclear devastation as one of its main battlegrounds. The book
includes survey chapters and case studies on Western Europe, the
USSR, Japan and the USA. Looking at various strands of intellectual
debate and at different media, from documentary film to fiction,
the chapters demonstrate the difficulties to make the unthinkable
and unimaginable - nuclear apocalypse - imaginable. The book will
be required reading for everyone who wants to understand the
cultural dynamics of the Cold War through the angle of its core
ingredient, nuclear weapons. -- .
