Description and Table of Contents
Description
During the Truman and Eisenhower administrations, Washington policymakers aspired to destabilize the Soviet and East European Communist Party regimes by implementing programmes of psychological warfare and gradual cultural infiltration. In focusing on American propaganda and cultural infiltration of the Soviet empire in these years, "Parting the Curtain" emerges as a study of certain aspects of US Cold War diplomacy which have been hitherto unexamined.
