From Hot to Warm 2016...cold again Close of the Cold War From Hot to Warm 2016...cold again

Lessons and Legacies The United States didn’t so much win as USSR lost. Weapons race has become a developing nations’ race. Eastern Europe was behind the rest of the world in terms of industrialization. Use of soft and hard power.

Detente Predecessor: Kennedy & Khruschev...Cuban Missile Crisis Cooling between USSR & USA between 1969 and 1974 Nixon and Brezhnev Characterized by: -expansion of trade (grain deals in particular) -limits on weapons -cooperative research (space) Was Detente soft or hard use of power?

Perestroika & Glasnost Restructuring (Perestroika) & Transparency (Glasnost) Mikhail Gorbachev (in office 1985-1991) Position then abolished

USSR Losses Economic -no progress -illusion of advancement in industrialization -citizens realized backwardness of shortages Social & Political -democracy held appeal -Communist Party discredited -Boycotts hurt athletes

What it looked like (1989-1991) Borders Opened Citizens and tourists/visitors could freely move between former Eastern Bloc countries and the West. Berlin Wall Came Down Soviet Union Broke Up Eastern Europe, beginning with Solidarity Movement in Poland, began to break down. By 1991-1992 Soviet republics were independent.

Lessons in America Using anti-communism for political gain did harm Congress’s use of investigative power should be very selective CIA and FBI need to return to initial objectives Political freedom is an inherent freedom Weapons proliferation threatens everyone

-Richard Haass, President, Council on Foreign Relations. 11/27/2009 All of the above has implications for today's challenges. To be sure, there is no global threat on the scale of the former Soviet Union, but there are dangerous challenges emanating from such countries as Iran and North Korea. What is required is a policy on the part of the global community that mixes military strength with a willingness to negotiate and interact, a policy of collective strength and collective flexibility. -Richard Haass, President, Council on Foreign Relations. 11/27/2009 Explain the significance of this quote.
