As Marko Dumancic writes in his introduction to Gender, Sexuality,
and the Cold War, ""despite the centrality of gender and sexuality
in human relations, their scholarly study has played a secondary
role in the history of the Cold War. . . . It is not an
exaggeration to say that few were left unaffected by Cold War
gender politics; even those who were in charge of producing,
disseminating, and enforcing cultural norms were called on to live
by the gender and sexuality models into which they breathed life.""
This underscores the importance of this volume, as here scholars
tackle issues ranging from depictions of masculinity during the
all-consuming space race, to the vibrant activism of Indian peasant
women during this period, to the policing of sexuality inside the
militaries of the world. Gender, Sexuality, and the Cold War brings
together a diverse group of scholars whose combined research spans
fifteen countries across five continents, claiming a place as the
first volume to examine how issues of gender and sexuality impacted
both the domestic and foreign policies of states, far beyond the
borders of the United States, during the tumult of the Cold War.
