Klappentext zu „How We Forgot the Cold War “
Hours after the USSR collapsed in 1991, Congress began making plans to establish the official memory of the Cold War. Conservatives dominated the proceedings, spending millions to portray the conflict as a triumph of good over evil and a defeat of totalitarianism equal in significance to World War II. The authors journey provides a history of the Cold War, one that turns many conventional notions on their heads. He takes readers to sites such as the life-size recreation of Berlins Checkpoint Charlie at the Reagan Library, the fallout shelter display at the Smithsonian, and exhibits about Sgt. Elvis, Americas most famous Cold War veteran, and discovers that the Cold War isnt being remembered.
