{"product_id":"local-consequences-of-the-global-jeffrey-engel-9780804759472","title":"Local Consequences of the Global Cold War","description":"\u003cp\u003eUp to now the study of cold war history has been fully engaged in stressing the international character and broad themes of the story. This volume turns such diplomatic history upside down by studying how actions of international relations affected local popular life. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach chapter has its origins in a major international issue, and then unfolds the consequences of that issue for some region or city. Thus the starting points for the various contributions are great unifying questions regarding postwar occupation, militarization, industrialization, and decolonization. But the ending points are small and dispersed, such as movies in Japan, race relations in the American South, forests in East Germany, and industry in Novosibirsk. Collectively, these stories show how the cold war affected every facet of life-East and West, urban and rural, in developed and developing nations, in the superpowers and on the periphery of the international system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeffrey Engel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804759472\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804759472\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.34w x 1.09d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2008 pg. 43","brand":"Jeffrey Engel","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47579609268479,"sku":"9780804759472","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1fd3bbfc-c8e1-41a5-965a-01037cc4595c.jpg?v=1763875385","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/local-consequences-of-the-global-jeffrey-engel-9780804759472","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
