Новая книга нашего преподавателя

Был ли у Холодной Войны правовой фронт? На этот вопрос отвечает новая
книга, вышедшая под редакцией доцента факультета истории Татьяны Борисовой
(совместно с Уильямом Саймонсом).

Книга "The Legal Dimension in Cold-War Interactions: Some Notes from the Field" вышла в конце 2012 г в издательстве Martinus Nijhoff Publishers (Leiden; Boston) в серии "Право в Восточной Европе".

Аннотация с сайта издательства:

Given their relationship to political rhetoric, myths of the Cold War certainly matter today; the legal field is no exception. Although Cold-War studies remains a blooming field, its legal dimensions have not been sufficiently developed. Only recently have legal scholars begun to embark upon research in law and the Cold War and how this area is regarded nowadays, both explicitly and implicitly. Preliminary results show that, on both sides of the Iron Curtain, knowledge of law of the ‘Other’ was encapsulated within two main frameworks: ideological and pragmatic. How did these approaches interrelate and influence one another? Can pure knowledge strictly be divided from contextual conditions? The chapters in this volume present retrospective accounts of actors who have been involved in the circulation of knowledge through the Curtain and, also, research on recent political and legal phenomena echoing the Cold-War discourse.
