Abstract
The Materialising the Cold War project [MCW], which ran from 1 October 2021
until 31 January 2025, was a partnership between the University of Stirling (UoS)
and National Museums Scotland (NMS) that explored how the Cold War featured
in museums. It achieved this in two ways: first, by evaluating existing collections
and displays together with key partners in the UK, in Germany and in Norway; and
second, by generating new content and evaluating visitor responses. It leaves a
legacy in practice, publications and other resources, engagement activities including
a schools programme, and an exhibition. It was funded by a major grant from the Arts
and Humanities Research Council (Project Reference: AH/V001078/1)
