TERms to know (copy these on your own paper) Cold War Iron Curtain Truman Doctrine Marshall Plan Berlin Airlift Containment Policy Mao Zedong Korean War Sputnik House Un-American Activities Committee Rosenberg Trial Venona Papers “McCarthyism”

Concepts of the cold war Conflict Superpowers Political differences Competition Arms race Propaganda Ideological differences Religious differences Economic differences

What was “The Cold War?” Although the United States and the Soviet Union had been allies during World War II, these two Superpowers soon became rivals in the “Cold War.” This war was “cold” only in the sense that, because of nuclear weapons, the two Superpowers never confronted each other directly in open warfare. However, their global competition led to frequent conflicts on EVERY continent.

overview Roots of the Cold War The Cold War in Europe and Asia The Cold War at Home

The roots of the cold war Fear of a Communist World Revolution (“containment policy” adopted/”domino theory” developed) Soviets set up satellites in Eastern Europe Competing ideological systems (democracy and free enterprise vs. Communism – see “comparison chart”) Stalin fails to hold elections in Poland U.S. fails to share its atomic secrets The Iron Curtain (shuts Eastern Europe off from West)

The cold war in europe Formation of NATO Truman doctrine (supported by Greece and Turkey) Marshall plan (1948) Division of Germany (4 zones of occupation)

The cold war in asia Communism in China (led by Mao Zedong) North Korea Invades South Korea (Korean War 1950 – 1953) MacArthur – Truman Controversy (liberate China from Communist control!) MacArthur’s advances bring China into the war Armistice ends war w/no land changes. Demilitarization Zone created.

The cold war at home Fear of Communist threat Creation of loyalty review boards House Un-American Activities Committee (investigated those accused of disloyalty) “McCarthyism” (making accusations without evidence) Trial of the Rosenbergs (found guilty as Soviet spies) The “Venona papers” (1997 – confirmed that spies had penetrated U.S. government!)
