Abstract

This data collection - The Trachtenberg Papers - broadly concerns Cold War policy from the end of WWII to 1964. The data was accumulated in order to write several books and articles relating to Cold War relations during this pivotal period, most notably A Constructed Peace: The Making of the European Settlement, 1945-1963 (Princeton: Princeton University Press, February 1999). This particular data project contains pedagogical materials born out of the data collection and analysis process. It contains a collection of course materials spanning international politics from the 19th Century to the post 9/11 world and guidance for researchers interested in historical work on the Cold War period. This includes a guide on how to define a project, identifying the scholarly literature, working with primary sources, and how to begin writing, as well as separate materials on declassification analysis. Deposited data and materials were previously shared on Marc Trachtenberg's UCLA website, which is also available on the Internet Archive.
