Description

Explore the complex reality of the Cold War through the lens of Marc Trachtenberg in A Constructed Peace: The Making of the European Settlement, 1945-1963. While many view the era as a simple two-sided conflict, this work challenges that perspective by examining the deeper tensions that shaped global politics. Trachtenberg spent nearly twenty years researching the fundamental puzzle of the Cold War: why did a period where both America and Russia were willing to accept the status quo in Europe not result in a nuclear holocaust? This book provides a deep dive into the German question and the specific historical forces that influenced the European settlement. Published by Princeton University Press as part of the Princeton Studies in International History and Politics series, this volume offers a detailed look at the period between 1945 and 1963. It is an essential read for students and historians interested in European history and the mechanics of international relations during the mid-20th century.
