Culture and Politics in the Cold War and Beyond

Building on the highly regarded series edited by Christian Appy, new editors Edwin A. Martini and Scott Laderman seek projects that move beyond traditional temporal and geographic boundaries of the Cold War; that consider its effects through new approaches, such as studies of militarized landscapes and the environment, or international sport and culture; and that explore domestic and transnational legacies of American global influence and interventions in innovative ways.

Edwin A. Martini is professor of history at Western Michigan University, where he currently serves as associate dean of Extended University Programs. His publications include, most recently, Agent Orange: History, Science, and the Politics of Uncertainty and Proving Grounds: Militarized Landscapes, Weapons Testing, and the Environmental Impact of U.S. Bases.

Scott Laderman is professor of history at the University of Minnesota, Duluth. He is author of Empire in Waves: A Political History of Surfing and Tours of Vietnam: War, Travel Guides, and Memory.
