This study presents a cultural history of madness in the Cold War, tracing its origins in the transfer of European psychology, the re-evaluation of psychosis in the Sixties and the retreat of the left under Reagan. Tropes of madness dramatize the conflict between social determination and personal will and ultimately imagine a sociality beyond liberal individualism.
