Ask the Bench: World War II and the Aftermath
This week’s readings below. Hit me.
- Kennedy, David. Freedom From Fear.
- Brinkley, Alan. The End of Reform: New Deal Liberalism in Recession and War.
- Borgwardt, Elizabeth. A New Deal for the World: America’s Vision for Human Rights.
- Dower, John W. War Without Mercy: Race and Power in the Pacific War.
- Gaddis, John Lewis. We Now Know: Rethinking Cold War History.
- Alterman, Eric. When Presidents Lie: A History of Official Deception and Its Consequences.
- LaFeber, Walter. America, Russia, and the Cold War.
Anything interesting to say about the relationship between cold war paranoia and race? Perhaps wiretapping MLK or threats of third world revolution in the US?
