UCL has trial access to FBIS Daily Reports: Asia & Pacific (1974-1987), Joint Publications Research Service (JPRS) Reports (1957-1995) and American Proxy Wars: Korea and Vietnam Global Perspectives (1946-1975) until 10th June 2022.

FBIS Daily Reports: Asia & Pacific (1974-1987) : please note that this trial access has been included with our existing subscribed content. This collection consists of FBIS APA (Asia & Pacific, 1974-1987) and EAS (East Asia, 1987-1996). These reports provide national and occasionally local perspectives through a wealth of original political broadcasts and newspaper coverage.

Joint Publications Research Service (JPRS) Reports (1957-1995) From the height of the Cold War to the dawn of the Internet and the dissolution of the Soviet Union, JPRS reports document the changes on the ground. JPRS—acting as a unit within the Central Intelligence Agency—was established in March 1957 as part of the United States Department of Commerce’s Office of Technical Services.

American Proxy Wars: Korea and Vietnam Global Perspectives (1946-1975) : While the origins of both the Korean and Vietnam wars are rooted in their countries’ respective histories, much of the world regarded the wars as proxies for the larger Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. This collection features original sources covering Cold War politics, East-West relations and colonial history.
