MACMILLAN Transnational Anti-Communism and the Cold War: Agents, Activities, and Networks (Palgrave Macmillan Transnational History Series)

Review “The volume brings together the work of a new generation of scholars of the Cold War, some of whose work is appearing in English translation for the first time. … This edited volume sets the agenda for future research on transnationalism and the Cold War, about which much remains to be discovered.” (Benjamin Tromly, European History Quarterly, Vol. 46 (4), 2016) Product Description How was anti-communism organised in the West? This book covers the agents, aims, and arguments of various transnational anti-communist activists during the Cold War. Existing narratives often place the United States – and especially the CIA – at the centre of anti-communist activity. The book instead opens up new fields of research transnationally.
