Science Popularization as Cultural Diplomacy in Cold War UNESCO (1946-1958) highlights how after the Second World War, science became a crucial tool in the reestablishment of international relations, but, at the same time, an open battlefield in which different nations and ideologies struggled for hegemony.

Andrée Bergeron is Associate Professor of History of Science at the Centre Alexandre-Koyré (EHESS-CNRS-MNHN) in Paris. Her research focuses on the articulation between science, culture and politics. She has recently coordinated with Charlotte Bigg a collective volume Les Sciences et leurs Mises en Scène (19e-21e) (forthcoming).

Agustí Nieto-Galan is Professor of History of Science at the Institut d'Història de la Ciència of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and ICREA Acadèmia Fellow. His research focuses on the relation between science and politics in the twentieth century, in particular on the role of refugee scholars and activists in the production of new knowledge.

Jaume Sastre-Juan is Serra-Húnter Professor at the Institut d'Història de la Ciència of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. His research focuses on the intersection between politics and the popularization of science and technology. He has published on the history of "interactivity" in science museums, on technological fun in amusement parks and on the banalization of nuclear technologies through display.
