The Tamiment Library and the Faculty of Arts and Science are collaborating on a Cold War studies project.
Great! As more and more archives in Moscow open up, historians will be able to paint an ever more accurate picture of the period.
According to Ronald Radosh, however, that is isn’t really what the Center for the Cold War and the United States is about. It sounds like its going to consist of a bunch of lefty academics talking about the cold war as if communism was never really, like, a problem for our country.
Radosh writes that
Desirable proposals … would deal with “political repression and resistance.” No proposal … would be welcome that took as its starting point the belief that, in the 1930s and ’40s, American communists just may have posed an actual threat to America’s national security, and that does not view the question of how to deal with this problem as anything but repression.
A quick glance at the titles of the programs makes this clear. One seems to draw a parallel between the U.S. under the Johnson Administration to South Africa’s apartheid regime during the same time. Nice.
The program would be uncontroversial if it wasn’t for the fact that, as Radosh shows, views that conflict with the “cheerleader” position aren’t welcome at the Center.
Unfortunately, this endeavor makes it seem as if NYU is playing into the David Horowitz - Indoctrination U stereotype that universities are unrepentant bastions of left-wing bias - a stereotype based on many kernels of truth, but none of which I have personally experienced.
