This volume examines how, why, and with what consequences this rapid and yet contested expansion depended on the entanglement of the social sciences with the Cold War. Utilizing the controversial but useful concept of "Cold War Social Science," the contributions gathered here reveal how scholars from established disciplines and new interdisciplinary fields of study made important contributions to long-standing debates about knowledge production, liberal democracy, and human nature in an era of diplomatic tension and ideological conflict"-- 650 0 Social sciences |xResearch |zUnited States |xHistory. 650 0 World politics |y1945-1989. 700 1 Solovey, Mark, |d1964- 700 1 Cravens, Hamilton. 856 42 |3Cover image |uhttp://www.netread.com/jcusers2/bk1388/503/9780230340503/image/lgcover.9780230340503.jpg 906 7 |bcbc |corignew |d1 |eecip |f20 |gy-gencatlg 942 |2ddc |cBK 955 |bre04 2011-11-21 |cre04 2011-11-21 ONIX to Social Sciencesxn05 2012-03-09 1 copy rec'd., to CIP ver. 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6300_720730000000000_SOL |70 |8REF |925105OSA |bOSA |d2013-09-02 |eOSA |l0 |o300.72/073 SOL |r2013-09-02 |w2013-09-02 |yBK |cReference 920 01 xeEEmdeJ 992 01 300_720730000000000_SOL |bWZZ_SXZSWZZZZZZZZZZ_7BE 966 |cIn the Research Room
