VA and US History The Cold War Korean War Lecture Notes: Unit 8 Lesson 1 Standard VUS.13b

Bell Ringer “We need allies and collective security. Our purpose is to make these relations more effective, less costly. This can be done by placing more reliance on deterrent power and less dependence on local defensive power... Local defenses must be reinforced by the further deterrent of massive retaliatory power. A potential aggressor must know that he cannot always prescribe battle conditions that suit him.” John Foster Dulles (Secretary of State for Eisenhower)

Key Points Defining a “Cold War” Capitalism vs. Communism The Truman Doctrine NATO vs. Warsaw Pact The Korean War The Berlin Wall Massive Retaliation

How to fight a Cold War Bankrupt your enemy Help anyone that likes capitalism Threaten force Make your enemy think you are bigger than they are Make your people think you are good and they are bad Assassinate leaders who oppose you Use the CIA to secretly pick at your enemy Get other countries to do your fighting for you What is the one thing that never happens between the US and the USSR?

They’re not just competing for Berlin…

The United States Democratic political institutions A generally free market economic system.

The Soviet Union Totalitarian government Communist economic system.

30 seconds…think don’t talk

Why was it built?

Nuclear War America, under President Eisenhower, adopted a policy of “massive retaliation” to deter any nuclear strike by the Soviets. Both sides build as many nuclear weapons as they can afford But…both sides are afraid to use them…it would be Mutually Assured Destruction

Quote of the Day “Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.” Dwight D. Eisenhower
