Cold War Edutainment: Understanding Czech Documentaries on Cold War Latin America
Original language description
An essential dimension of the Cold War took place in the realm of ideas and culture. While much work exists on cinema, relatively little research has been conducted on this subject in relation to television, despite the latter being a popular cultural form that emerged during this period. The articles in this book rectify that absence by examining the impact of the Cold War on entertainment television, and underlines the comparative aspect by studying programs from both blocs. Although most of the focus is on the two main protagonists, the US and the USSR, chapters also consider programming from the UK, Czechoslovakia, Romania, and both East and West Germany. This book represents a contribution to the debate about the cultural Cold War through a rigorously comparative analysis of the two blocs.
