Dr. Rotter’s research focus is U.S.-Asia relations during the Cold War; he is author, most recently, of Comrades at Odds: Culture and Indo-U.S. Relations, 1947-1964 (2000), and is currently writing about the global impact of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. He is particularly interested in cultural approaches to international history, including the use of race, gender, religion, and class as categories of analysis, and he has explored the role of such matters as gesture, appearance, and odor in shaping diplomatic encounters.
