Comment: Russian and East-Bloc Archival Documents Database
This grant supports an archive and electronic database of important documents on the history of the cold war. It will include documents released by the governments of the United States, its allies, the former Warsaw Pact states, China, Vietnam, and other participants in the cold war. The database will eventually allow scholars to gain on-line access to full text versions of the documents. The grant also supports commissioned research and a conference in Warsaw on the role of Poland's Solidarity movement in influencing the Soviet Union's policies near the end of the cold war.
