-- Alice Lovejoy is located in Minneapolis, MN -- Mari Pajala is located in Turku, Finland -- Alice Lovejoy's first IUP book was named co-winner of the Modern Language Association's 2018 Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for Studies in Slavic Languages and Literatures, was awarded an honorable mention for the 2016 University of Southern California Book Prize in Literary and Cultural Studies and the 2017 Czechoslovak Studies Association Book Prize, and was longlisted for the 2016 Kraszna-Krausz Moving Image Book Award. Lovejoy is an expert film, media, and cultural historian who focuses on governmental and institutional media cultures in transnational perspectives. Mari Pajala is editor of four volumes in Finnish and German. Pajala was previously Government of Finland/David and Nancy Speer Visiting Professor in Finnish Studies at the University of Minnesota and visiting research fellow at Utrecht University. Pajala currently teaches modules including Media History and Archives and Media and Popular Culture. -- This book makes an important contribution to scholarship on the cultural history of the Cold War through media studies that reveal that East European media engaged in multiple ways with spaces beyond the Iron Curtain. -- This book fits squarely in our film and media and Russian and Eastern European Studies lists. It contributes to our established collection on documentary and non-fiction film, which is well-respected and still receiving a steady stream of new works. -- Our audience includes scholars and graduate students in film and media and Russian and Eastern European Studies. The appeal is academic, but broad because the volume has a wide geographical approach and is interdisciplinary.
