Overview

Dystopian Discord: Cold War Politics and Cambodian Communism delves into the complex interplay between ideology, nationalism, and conflict within communist regimes. Focusing on the Khmer Rouge's brutal rise and subsequent internal unrest within Cambodia, this book provides a groundbreaking analysis of how ethnic nationalism and xenophobia fueled one of the most catastrophic regimes in history. Drawing from a wealth of primary and secondary sources, Dystopian Discord: Cold War Politics and Cambodian Communism explores the internal and geopolitical tensions that led to war among communist states in Southeast Asia during the Cold War, challenging the oversimplified narrative of a unified communist bloc. Ideal for scholars of military studies, political science, and international relations, this work offers critical insights into the darker facets of revolutionary movements and the enduring impact of ideological extremism on global conflict.
