Biography
Sue Onslow has taught at the London School of Economics since 1994. She is currently a Cold War Studies Fellow in the Cold War Studies Centre/IDEAS.
'A welcome addition to the burgeoning historiography on the Cold War in the region is Sue Onslow’s edited collection Cold War in Southern Africa: White Power, Black Liberation. The book is split into two themes with chapters covering white nationalist power and its projection onto neighbouring states, and African liberation struggles against these regimes.' - Matthew Graham, Africa Spectrum, 45, 1, pp131-139
