Globalization of American Culture: McD's McDonald's restaurants circled the globe by the early twenty-first century, exemplifying the globalization of American culture.

Gorbachev and Reagan holding their watches In one of several summit meetings, top Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev (b. 1932) and President Ronald Reagan (b. 1911) met in Moscow in May 1988 in hopes of signing a Strategic Arms Reduction Talks (START) agreement. The "chemistry" of warm friendship that Reagan later claimed characterized his personal relationship with Gorbachev fell short of producing cuts in dangerous strategic weapons. But their cordial interaction encouraged the diplomatic dialogue that helped end the Cold War. (Ronald Reagan Presidential Library) Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

Persian Gulf oil fields In the Persian Gulf War of early 1991, Operation Desert Storm forced Iraqi troops out of Kuwait. Much of that nation's oil industry was destroyed by bombs and the retreating Iraqis, who torched oil facilities as they left. Oil wells burned for months, darkening the sky over these American forces and causing environmental damage. (Bruno Barbey/Magnum Photos, Inc.) Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company.

Reagan poster Reagan poster Ronald Reagan, the Republican presidential candidate in 1980, campaigned for "family values," an aggressive anti-Soviet foreign and military policy, and tax cuts. He also exuded optimism and appealed to Americans' patriotism. This poster, issued by the Republican National Committee, included Reagan's favorite campaign slogan, "Let's make America great again."

Map: Presidential Election 1988 George Bush easily defeated Michael Dukakis in both popular and electoral votes. The key to Bush's victory was his ability to retain the political support that Ronald Reagan had enjoyed in 1980 and 1984. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
