This edited collection provides a comprehensive international history of the origins of the Cold War, bringing together scholarly essays that go beyond traditional euro-centric interpretations. The contributions explore geopolitics and threat perception, strategy and technology, ideology and economic reform, decolonization and national liberation, and how the Cold War spread across Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. The second edition includes updated research from the Communist perspective, recent debates on culture and intelligence analysis, and new material on early post-World War II crises in Iran, Turkey, and Greece — making it essential reading for students and scholars of twentieth-century international history and global politics.
