Cold War Review Remember the four regions. Divided into key themes covering the period 1945 – 1989. Key questions: Origins: How did it start? Why did it start? Global Spread (1945-’64): How did if move beyond Europe? What were the impacts on other countries? Reconciliation & Renewed Conflict: (1963-’79): To what extent was there a thaw? Why was there renewed conflict? Conclusion: Why did it end when it did? How did it end?

Overview Has been described as a chess game, a fight for the end of the world Important to note that despite the overarching conflict, there were periods of peace Main theories explaining the CW: Russian Menace (Orthodox), US Imperialism (Revisionist), Post- revisionist = both sides responsible (class conflict, ideology, power, arms race, developed & developing worlds)

Global Spread – early years (late 40s- early 50s) Iron Curtain speech Truman Doctrine – containment v. confrontation (NSC-68) Marshall Plan Stalinization Chinese Revolution & Mao NATO & Warsaw Pact Division of Germany Korean War (1st “hot war” & non-Euro action between superpowers)

Global – Middle Years (early 50s-early 60s) Khrushchev’s Peaceful Co-Existence & secret speech (de-Stalinization) Brinkmanship (Dulles) Cuban Missile Crisis – case study! Nuclear Test Ban Treaty

Middle Years – mid 1960s- mid 1970s Prague Spring Brezhnev Doctrine Vietnam Triangulated relations – USSR, China, USA

Détente & Renewed Conflict 1970 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty SALT I (1972) Helsinki Conference (‘73-75) Ping Pong Diplomacy 1979 Soviets in Afghanistan US involvement in Latin America (Chile, Nicaragua) Reagan’s election The New Right; Star Wars

Glasnost, Perestroika – Gorbachev Doctrine Conclusion of the CW, 1985-91 Glasnost, Perestroika – Gorbachev Doctrine George HW Bush continuation of Reagan policies Collapse of Eastern European communist governments (1989) Czechoslovakia’s Velvet Revolution East Germany/Berlin Wall Failed coup against Gorbachev; dissolution of the Soviet Union (1991)

Essay Questions to Discuss Assess the importance of two leaders from different regions in the development of the CW. Evaluate the impact of the CW on two nations other than the U.S. and the USSR. “The Cuban Missile Crisis’ potential to become nuclear has been exaggerated.” TWE do you agree with this statement? Compare & contrast the roles of Reagan & Gorbachev in end of the Cold War.
