Cold War Britain, 1945-1964

de Hopkins, Michael F.

"This book aims to deepen our understanding of Britain's role by both revisiting commonly accepted central issues and revealing under-explored topics and themes during the early Cold War years. Additionally, it examines Britain's response in a wider context: against the backdrop of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Anglo-Russian antagonism, the domestic political and economic scene, and the UK's particular position in the world after the end of the Second World War."--BOOK JACKET.
