Abstract

Focusing on the borders of the Cold War, 'Defectors' examines how the superpowers competed over those who took unauthorized flight from behind the Iron Curtain and how this movement of people in camps, border zones, around embassies, in international waters, and in the air helped create the current refugee system.
