Description

Historical consensus views the Euromissile Crisis of the early 1980s as “the last battle of the Cold War.” In this illuminating re-examination of this multifaceted campaign, Beyond the Euromissile Crisis broadens our understanding of anti-nuclear activism, highlighting how it remains a truly global phenomenon. Investigating the motivations, forms of action, and accomplishments of activists from South Africa, Polynesia, Brazil and elsewhere, this volume offers new ways of conceptualizing the chronology of anti-nuclear protest.

Luc-André Brunet is a Senior Lecturer in Contemporary International History at The Open University and Co-Director of the Peace and Security Project at LSE IDEAS. The Principal Investigator of the AHRC-funded project, ‘Global Histories of Peace and Anti-Nuclear Activism,’ he is also a co-editor of the McGill-Queen’s University Press book series on Global Nuclear Histories. His recent publications include NATO and the Strategic Defence Initiative: A Transatlantic History of the Star Wars Programme (Routledge, 2022), and a forthcoming book on Canada, the global nuclear order, and the end of the Cold War.

Eirini Karamouzi is a Professor of Contemporary European History at the American College of Greece and the University of Sheffield. She has held fellowships at EUI, LSE, Yale University, and the University of Tampere, and co-directs an AHRC-funded project, ‘Global Histories of Peace and Anti-Nuclear Activism’. She is also a co-editor of the McGill-Queen’s University Press book series on Global Nuclear Histories. Her recent publications include; Greece, the EEC and the Cold War: The Second Enlargement (Palgrave Macmillan, 2014), and the co-edited volume, The Balkans in the Cold War (Palgrave Macmillan, 2017).
