As David Engerman shows in this book, a network of scholars, soldiers, spies, and philanthropists created an enterprise known as Soviet Studies to fill in this dangerous gap in American knowledge. This group brought together some of the nation's best minds from the left, right, and center, colorful and controversial individuals ranging from George Kennan to Margaret Mead to Zbigniew Brzezinski, not to mention historians Sheila Fitzpatrick and Richard Pipes. Together they created the knowledge that helped fight the Cold War and define Cold War thought. Soviet Studies became a vibrant intellectual enterprise, studying not just the Soviet threat, but Soviet society and culture at a time when many said that these were contradictions in terms, as well as Russian history and literature. And this broad network, Engerman argues, forever changed the relationship between the government and academe, connecting the Pentagon with the ivory tower in ways that still matter today. 606 $aCold War$xStudy and teaching (Higher)$zUnited States 606 $aSovietologists$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aScholars$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aSocial scientists$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPolitical scientists$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aIntellectuals$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aSoviet Union$xStudy and teaching (Higher)$zUnited States 607 $aSoviet Union$xResearch$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xIntellectual life$y20th century 615 0$aCold War$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 615 0$aSovietologists$xHistory 615 0$aScholars$xHistory 615 0$aSocial scientists$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical scientists$xHistory 615 0$aIntellectuals$xHistory 676 $a947.084072 700 $aEngerman$b David C.$f1966-$0475862 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820933603321 996 $aKnow your enemy$9242202 997 $aUNINA
