Rethinking the 1950s: How Anticommunism and the Cold War Made America Liberal
Delton, Jennifer A. (Skidmore College, New York)
Jennifer A. Delton argues that, far from subverting the New Deal state, anticommunism and the Cold War enabled, fulfilled, and even surpassed the New Deal's reform agenda. Anticommunism solidified liberal political power and the Cold War justified liberal goals such as job creation, corporate regulation, economic redevelopment, and civil rights.
