This volume brings together an international line-up of experts to explore how these transformations took place and expand on some of the latest threads of analysis to help inform our understanding of the links between the two phenomena. The book begins by exploring ideas of modernity, development, and economics as Cold War and postcolonial projects and goes on to look at the era's intellectual history and investigate how emerging forms of identity fought for supremacy. Finally, the contributors question ideas of sovereignty and state control that move beyond traditional Cold War narratives. Decolonization and the Cold War emphasizes new approaches by drawing on various methodologies, regions, themes, and interdisciplinary work, to shed new light on two topics that are increasingly important to historians of the twentieth century."--Provided by publisher.New Approaches to International HistoryAnti-imperialist movementsHistory20th centuryAutonomy and independence movementsHistory20th centuryCold WarDecolonizationHistory20th centuryEconomic developmentHistory20th centuryIntellectual lifeHistory20th centuryPostcolonialismHistory20th centurySocial changeHistory20th centuryWorld politics1945-198920th century history: c 1900 to c 2000Anti-imperialist movementsHistoryAutonomy and independence movementsHistoryCold War.DecolonizationHistoryEconomic developmentHistoryIntellectual lifeHistoryPostcolonialismHistorySocial changeHistoryWorld politics325/.309045HIS037070bisacshJames Leslie1980-Leake ElisabethUtOrBLWUtOrBLWUkLoBPBOOK9910807700503321Decolonization and the Cold War3933215UNINA
