THE END OF THE COLD WAR

AND EVERYTHING ELSE....

1. Pacific co existence (1962-1979)

The two superpowers agree to promote a more secure international environment with arms control agreements:

  • Test Ban Treaty (outlawed nuclear testing)
  • SALT I and II (limited number of nuclear weapons held by each side)
  • Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces Treaty.

2. America’s economy grew MUCH stronger than the Soviet's

The Communist economic system didn't work More and more residents of the communist nations realized their system was failing.

The cold war dare

World politics are challenging, all the time. How would you act as president? how far will you go to encourage democratic reform? How much will you risk a Soviet crackdown on these freedom-seeking peoples? Will your efforts help bring democracy to Eastern Europe, or will you provoke the Soviet Union to bring down its wrath, setting the cause of freedom back by decades?
