Das zeitgenössische Hollywood-Kino rangiert in der normativen und ästhetischen Bewertung nach wie vor weit unten. Das Buch widerlegt dieses Urteil auf ganzer Linie: es zeigt sich begeistert von dieser spektakulären Filmform und entwickelt zugleich eine reflexive Perspektive, die den filmästhetischen Strategien Rechnung trägt und Hollywood als ein luzides Beobachtungsmedium von Globalisierungswissen vorstellt. Das Buch geht der Frage nach, wie im Bereich der populärkulturellen Produktion Globalisierungsdynamiken bildästhetisch und narrativ verarbeitet werden. Anhand von drei exemplarischen Beiträgen des zeitgenössischen Spionage-, Kriegs- und Katastrophenfilms werden Leitfragen der kultur- und sozialwissenschaftlichen Globalisierungsforschung untersucht.

The Cold War on Film illustrates how to use film as a teaching tool. It stands on its own as an account of both the war and the major films that have depicted it. Memories of the Cold War have often been shaped by the popular films that depict it-for example, The Manchurian Candidate, The Hunt for Red October, and Charlie Wilson's War, among others. The Cold War on Film examines how the Cold War has been portrayed through a selection of 10 iconic films that represent it through dramatization and storytelling, as opposed to through documentary footage. The book includes an introduction to the war's history and a timeline of events. Each of the 10 chapters that follow focuses on a specific Cold War film. Chapters offer a uniquely detailed level of historical context for the films, weighing their depiction of events against the historical record and evaluating how well or how poorly those films reflected the truth and shaped public memory and discourse over the war. A comprehensive annotated bibliography of print and electronic sources aids students and teachers in further research.
