About the Book
Melvyn Leffler’s second edition of this powerful volume presents a truly global and scholarly approach to understanding the origins of the Cold War. Going beyond traditional Western-centric narratives, this collection of essays offers a comprehensive, international perspective, incorporating the latest research—including archival findings and interpretations from the former Communist world.
By assembling a wide array of viewpoints, Leffler's work redefines how historians and students interpret the complex roots of the Cold War. The volume dissects the ideological, political, economic, and military dimensions that led to the global tension between the superpowers following World War II, providing readers with a richer and more nuanced understanding of the conflict.
This edition is particularly valuable for students of history, political science, international relations, and Cold War studies. It moves past outdated controversies and introduces fresh insights that make it a cornerstone reference for both academic and general readers interested in one of the most critical periods of modern world history.
