A wide range of transatlantic contributors addresses Berlin as a global focal point of the Cold War, and also assess the geopolitical peculiarity of the city and how citizens dealt with it in everyday life. They explore not just the implications of division, but also the continuing entanglements and mutual perceptions which resulted from Berlins unique status. An essential contribution to the study of Berlin in the 20th century, and the effects - global and local - of the Cold War on a city.
