Hide In Plain Sight
by David Wagner
Buhle (history, Brown U.) and Wagner present their third book in a trilogy on the Hollywood left in the era of the blacklist. Their volume explores the lives and productions of blacklisted writers and actors after they were forced out of Hollywood. A number of them moved to television, moving back to Hollywood as the McCarthy era began to pass into memory. Buhle and Wagner laud the artistic contributions of these individuals, arguing that their legacy is long lasting in the American dramatic arts.

The Castoriadis Reader
by Cornelius Castoriadis

The Torment of Secrecy
by Edward A. Shils
One of the few minor classics to emerge from the cold war years of McCarthyism--an essay in sociological analysis and political philosophy that considers the cold war preoccupation with espionage, sabotage, and subversion at home, and the agitation so wildly directed against the "enemy".

Budapest Exit
by Csaba Teglas
Faced with the Nazi invasion of Hungary during World War II, the Soviet occupation following the Allied victory, and finally with the opportunity to escape the oppressive regime during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, Csaba Teglas responded with ingenuity and hope. In Budapest Exit: A Memoir of Fascism, Communism, and Freedom he tells the story of his twenty-year quest for freedom. During the war, the dramatic changes that had taken place in his country intensified with the invasion of the Nazis. After the terrifying siege of Budapest the Nazis' defeat should have led to freedom, but for Hungary it meant the brutal occupation by the Soviets. Life in Budapest was difficult, but Teglas rose to meet the challenges presented to him. Teglas protested, sometimes quietly, sometimes more vocally, against the Soviet and communist presence in Hungary. During the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, Teglas became more involved in the opposition to the communists. When it became dear that the revolutionaries were not going to succeed, he knew he had to leave. Teglas recounts his dramatic escape through the heavily guarded Iron Curtain and his subsequent journey to North America, where life as an immigrant presented new challenges.

Afghanistan
by Ralph H. Magnus
A history of the events that helped create the conditions of the current world crisis. In this broad introductory volume, Ralph Magnus and Eden Naby detail Afghanistan's physical situation, human environment, and modern history, as well as the rise and fall of competing internal forces, most recently the Taliban. The authors offer analytical insight into Afghanistan's political position within the restructured Central Asian region, the ethnic relationships that complicate its political history, and the potential for stability.
