This volume takes a completely new look at two controversial topics:American anti-Communism and the Cold War. First, it reveals the littleknown history of anti-Communism in the US from the point of view of ethnic refugee/âemigrâe groups, and also offers insight into the lives ofminority groups that have hitherto not received scholarly attention, often due to their politically controversial position. The book consistsof chapters dedicated to particular ethnic groups, as well as an introduction and conclusion. The discussed groups include Latvians, Ukrainians, Albanians, Bulgarians, Slovaks, Vietnamese, Among and Cubans, possibly also Hungarians or Romanians. The introduction provides the historical and sociological framework, and the conclusion undertakes a comparative analysis of ethnic anti-Communism and refugee politics.
