Sudha Rajagopalan challenges and disrupts in a creative way the grand mainstream narratives of Cold War transnational relations. Her exploration of individuals’ memories of how they experienced these relations within their homes fits in the current scholarly discourse that seeks to break down binary visions about the Cold War – offering entangled visions of the “other”, concentrating on interactions between and cooperation of non-state and small actors on both sides of the Iron Curtain.
