Rezensionen / Stimmen

'This book is an extremely useful collection of works by the top scholars in the field, using new archival materials, and the scope of the book and choices of topics are original and interesting. [...]This book provides a good overview of the current state of field on the chronological frontier of Cold War scholarship, and excellent starting point for those who will push beyond it.' -- Jeremy Friedman, Yale University, H-Diplo Roundtable Review

'Kalinovsky and Radchenko have edited a very useful book - with essays chock full of important material' -- Vijay Prashad, Trinity College, Hartford, CT, H-Diplo Roundtable Review

'Artemy Kalinovsky and Sergey Radchenko's The End of the Cold War and the Third World comes as a timely, insightful volume that takes a major step in recognizing and correcting the problematic analytical relationship between the Cold War and the Third World. Its contribution to modern world history is especially valuable insofar as it aims to be as much a work of contemporary history as about the past century.' -- Heonik Kwon, Trinity College, Cambridge University, H-Diplo Roundtable Review

'The End of the Cold War and the Third World provides a wealth of stimulating insights, all presented within a conception of the subject matter that in its scope, depth, and nuance will serve as a beacon for other scholars. The volume provides both a mass of original primary research for regional specialists interested in just one or two chapters, and a complex, diverse, and rich conception of the end of the Cold War that will attract scholars from a number of fields interested in the subject as a whole. For both reasons, The End of the Cold War and the Third World ... will doubtless become an enduring staple of Cold War libraries.' -- Jamie Miller, University of Cambridge, H-Diplo Roundtable Review

'Artemy M. Kalinovsky and Sergey Radchenko have assembled a valuable and insightful collection of essays... By providing a volume seeking to explore the impact of the Cold War's end across a broad range of Third World cases, the editors have taken an important step toward deepening our understanding of the period's lasting significance and continuing effects...This is an outstanding work, and one that will be of great use to historians and students. Kalinovsky and Radchenko have accomplished a great deal by pushing our interest in the end of the Cold War beyond its typical Euro-American boundaries.' -- Michael E. Latham, Fordham University, H-Diplo Roundtable Review
