Henrik G. Bastiansen, Martin Klimke, Rolf Werenskjold

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Surveying existing literature, this chapter argues for a dialogue between the field of media and communication studies and Cold War historiography. Framing the trajectory of the volume both thematically and methodologically, the chapter highlights the benefits of such a synergetic approach for the study of the Cold War from a domestic and international perspective. The chapter also introduces the contributions of various authors in the volume.
