The Cold War, Then and Now

The legacy of the Cold War has massive effects on our current circumstances. The National Institute of Cold War Studies upholds that discussing the foundations of these contemporary issues is essential in understanding them fully. We accomplish this goal through our online forum, which allows members to dissect these connections and collaborate with our community of historians. Facilitating dynamic conversations is key to building a historic community. NICWS believes that through discussing connections to the past, we can build a better, more informed future.  

Our Forums are Members-only, but the discussion questions and responses will be posted here.
