Originally published over a decade ago, Religion and the Cold War was a groundbreaking contribution to Cold War scholarship that established beyond doubt that there was a significant religious dimension to the Cold War and that it mattered. The re-publication of these original pioneering essays is testimony not only to the way in which they have withstood the test of time and to their continued relevance, but above all because they are important contributions to the scholarly debates that are now taking place around the subject and which have implications that stretch far beyond academic enquiry. These explorations of the 'religious cold war' remain of profound importance, touching as they do on the relationship of religious institutions with temporal power, which is longstanding, intricate and varied, sustained not only by claims to command life's purpose and meaning, but also the provision of answers to men's deepest questions.
