Description

This compelling history of Europe’s Cold War follows the dramatic arc of the conflict that defined world politics in the second half of the twentieth century. Focusing on European actors and events, Mark Gilbert emphasizes the central role the conflict played in the postwar development of the continent. Rather than simply a strategic standoff between the superpowers, Gilbert argues, the Cold War was a social and ideological conflict that transformed Europe from Lisbon to Riga. Fast-paced and readable, this political, intellectual, and social history illuminates a conflict that continues to resonate today.
