This class is taught in English.

Upon completion of this class, students will have examined the early Cold War years and prominent events within it. They will have examined the Comintern of the Soviet Union, the secret underground activities of the Communist Party of the United States, front groups and fake businesses used by Soviet spies, the cooperation and alliance maintained by the United Kingdom and the United States, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. They will see how Gerhart Eisler fits into these events and organizations, his role in espionage, and how he managed to slip away. 

I have completed a bachelor's degree in History and Government and Political Philosophy. My written and defended thesis examined Soviet espionage during the early Cold War 1935-1955. I have delivered lectures on Gerhart Eisler in conferences for the Phi Alpha Theta Historical Honors Society, and have previously taught classes on Soviet espionage, and Gerhart Eisler to Middle and High school students.
