      abstract = {In a brilliant new interpretation, Campbell Craig and  Fredrik Logevall reexamine the successes and failures of  America's Cold War. The United States dealt effectively  with the threats of Soviet predominance in Europe and of  nuclear war in the early years of the conflict. But by  engineering this policy, American leaders successfully  paved the way for domestic actors and institutions with a  vested interest in the struggle's continuation. Long after  the USSR had been effectively contained, Washington  continued to wage a virulent Cold War that entailed a  massive arms buildup, wars in Korea and Vietnam, the  support of repressive regimes and counterinsurgencies, and  a pronounced militarization of American political culture.},
