Dr Jessica Douthwaite is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow working on the AHRC-funded collaboration with National Museums Scotland, ‘Materialising the Cold War’. Her Collaborative Doctoral Partnership PhD based at IWM, London and University of Strathclyde was titled 'Voices of the Cold War in Britain, 1945-1962' and awarded in 2018. She is currently writing a monograph which explores how the national and international landscapes of post-war Britain contextualised and influenced civilian experiences of Cold War security. She specialises in oral history methodology, gender and cultural studies, international relations and post-war British history.
