Title: Religion and the Cold War
Description: "This collection provides the first systematic examination of the role of religion in the Cold War. As the 'War on Terror', with its profound religious implications, is increasingly perceived as the 'new Cold War', it is more imperative still to understand the political influence of religion and its role in the international arena.".

"This specially commissioned new research and scholarship adds a whole new dimension to the cumulative process of Cold War scholarship, showing why religion is a key Cold War variable. It provides new perspectives and crucial insights into the ubiquitous, multi-dimensional conflict that dominated the latter half of the twentieth century."--BOOK JACKET.
