Russians in Cold War Australia
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-6669-4499-0 (ISBN)
Russians in Cold War Australia explores the time during the Cold War when Russian displaced persons, including former Soviet citizens, were amongst the hundreds of thousands of immigrants given assisted passage to Australia and other Western countries in the wake of the Second World War. With the Soviet Union and Australia as enemies, skepticism surrounding the immigrants’ avowed anti-communism introduced new hardships and challenges. This book examines Russian immigration to Australia in the late 1940s and 1950s, both through their own eyes and those of Australia's security service (ASIO), to whom all Russian speakers were persons of interest.
Sheila Fitzpatrick is professor at Australian Catholic University. Phillip Deery is emeritus professor of history at Victoria University in Melbourne.
