Approaching the early decades of the "Iron Curtain" with new
questions and perspectives, this important book examines the
political and cultural implications of the communists'
international initiatives. Building on recent scholarship and
working from new archival sources, the seven contributors to this
volume study various effects of international outreach--personal,
technological, and cultural--on the population and politics of the
Soviet bloc. Several authors analyze lesser-known complications of
East-West exchange; others show the contradictory nature of
Moscow's efforts to consolidate its sphere of influence in Eastern
Europe and in the Third World.
An outgrowth of the forty-sixth annual Walter Prescott Webb
Lectures, hosted in 2011 by the University of Texas at Arlington,
"Cold War Crossings" features diverse focuses with a unifying
theme.
