    Open AccessThomas A Schwartz, Edmund Spevack et al.BOOKUnited States and Germany in the…2004

    These volumes were originally published in 2004. The close association between the United States and the Federal Republic of Germany was a key element in the international order of the Cold War era. No country had as wide-reaching or as profound an impact on the western portion of divided Germany as the United States.

  • Reassessing the Gaither Report's Role

    Steven L ReardenARTICLEDiplomatic History2001

    If one were making a list of the dozen or so most important Cold War documents, certainly the Gaither Report would be a prime candidate for inclusion. Written by a panel of predominantly civilian outside experts and consultants, it was submitted to President Dwight D. Eisenhower in November 1957, recommending a $44 billion program for shoring up US strategic offensive and defensive military capabilities. That the report appeared shortly after the…

  • The Cold War

    Steven L ReardenARTICLEDiplomatic History2001

    The Cold War ended ten years ago, but the debate over how the West won continues unabated.

  • Paul H. Nitze

    Steven L ReardenARTICLEDiplomatic History1993

    Now that the Cold War is over, historians have a lot of stock taking to do, and evaluating the roles of those who helped to wage that conflict will doubtless be a consuming task for years to come. On the American side, one participant who stands out is Paul H. Nitze, whose service in foreign and defense matters under every president from Franklin D. Roosevelt to George Bush (except Jimmy Carter) justly entitles him to almost legendary status. At …
