Cold War
period of oscillatory antagonism (1953-1969)
second Cold War (1979-1989)
distension (1969- 1979)
First Cold War (1946- 1953)
Distension
1962-1975
This period saw a temporary lull for the following reasons:
The Cuban missile crisis of 1962 made the superpowers aware of the mortal danger of possessing and multiplying their nuclear arsenal.
The two superpowers felt, for different reasons, that a reduction in tension was in their long-term best interests.
Both powers were confronted with various complaints from the inhabitants of the countries concerned. The USSR, undermined by the Sino-Soviet conflict, had to deal with the Prague Spring in Czechoslovakia. The United States saw the European Union consolidate its position as an economic power.
antagonismo oscilatorio
1953- 1969
The author situates this period between the First Cold War, characterised by static confrontation, and the period of distension, essentially one of negociation.
First Cold War
1946- 1953
Was a period marked by a political-ideological conflict between the United States and the former Soviet Union (USSR). This period succeeded in separating the world into two great blocs, capitalism and communism.
Second Cold War
11979- 1989
The second Cold War was the continuation of the first, but I can tell you about these two wars: The Cold War lasted almost half a century. The US and the USSR engaged in an arms race, spending trillions of dollars to build up nuclear arsenals. The Cuban Missile Crisis brought the countries closer to the brink than any other Cold War event. Democratic uprisings were taking place in Soviet bloc countries. The US and the USSR forged a more open relationship, and negotiated a nuclear treaty in 1987 that eliminated one class of ground-launched missiles. By 1991, the Soviet Union had lost most of its people to democratic revolutions, and the Warsaw Pact was formally dissolved. In December 1991, the USSR dissolved into separate nations, and here the Cold War can be said to have ended.
