description While the divide between capitalism and communism, embodied in the image of the Iron Curtain, seemed to be as wide and definitive as any cultural rift, Giles Scott-Smith, Joes Segal, and Peter Romijn have compiled a selection of essays on how culture contributed to the blurring of ideological boundaries between the East and the West. This important and diverse volume presents fascinating insights into the tensions, rivalries, and occasional cooperation between the two blocs, with essays that represent the cutting edge of Cold War Studies and analyze aesthetic preferences and cultural phenomena as various as interior design in East and West Germany; the Soviet stance on genetics; US cultural diplomacy during and after the Cold War; and the role of popular music as the universal cultural ambassador. An illuminating and wide-ranging survey of interrelated collective dreams from both sides of the Iron Curtain, Divided Dreamworlds? has a place on the bookshelf of any modern historian.

Hoe heeft cultuur bijgedragen aan het wegvallen van ideologische grenzen tussen Oost en West? De auteurs analyseren onder meer het interieurontwerp in Oost- en West-Duitsland, de Russische visie op genetica, de Amerikaanse culturele diplomatie tijdens en na de Koude Oorlog en de rol van popmuziek. Deze vernieuwende studie legt enkele opvallende paradoxen bloot met betrekking tot de productie en de beleving van cultuur in Oost en West en biedt fascinerende inkijkjes in de spanningen, rivaliteit en schaarse momenten van samenwerking tussen de twee machtsblokken. 2021-02-10T12:58:18Z 2012-12-31 23:55:55 2019-12-10 14:46:32 2020-04-01T15:17:58Z 2012 book 425211 OCN: 816042019 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/34481 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/38878 eng Studies of the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation open access image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg n/a n/a n/a n/a https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34481/1/425211.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34481/1/425211.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34481/1/425211.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34481/1/425211.pdf Amsterdam University Press 10.26530/OAPEN_425211 10.26530/OAPEN_425211 de2ecbe7-1037-4e96-8c3a-5a842d921e04 248 open access
