Table of ContentsReviews"""A pathbreaking addition to Cold War history and to the history of migration in the Pacific, this deeply researched volume of essays details the post-World War II influx of some 20,000 Russians into Australia and the security dilemmas they presented, and it deftly examines the ideological, political, and personal clashes that ensued."" --Carole Fink, The Ohio State University ""This collection, expertly framed by co-editors Phillip Deery and Sheila Fitzpatrick, demonstrates the intricate relationship between the Cold War and migration. Engagingly - and even movingly - written, it is a model of how an apparently esoteric topic can speak to broader concerns such as perceptions of immigrants as dangerous, the rigors of adaptation and assimilation, the cultural contours of anti-communism, gendered understandings of political agency, and the conflict between humanitarian impulses and security imperatives."" --Lewis H. Siegelbaum" Author InformationSheila Fitzpatrick is professor at Australian Catholic University. Phillip Deery is emeritus professor of history at Victoria University in Melbourne.
