Question

What was a criticism made of George h.w. bush's New World Order?

Answer 1

Answer:

    The New World Order - or New World Geopolitical Order - means the international geopolitical plane of power and force correlations between National States after the end of the Cold War.

    With the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the world was faced with a new political configuration. The sovereignty of the United States and of capitalism extended to practically the whole world and NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) was consolidated as the largest and most powerful international military treaty. The planet, which was once in the so-called Cold War Bipolar Order, began to look for a new term to designate the new political plan.

   Democrats and Republicans criticized him for failing to announce to the world with due fanfare the victory of liberty over totalitarianism, of America over the USSR, the liberation of the eastern countries. Not quite. In 1990, he visited Lech Walesa in Gdansk, at the shipyards where it all began. It was necessary to understand the circumstances. Bush himself says of these criticisms: "The Democrats wanted me to go to Berlin and dance in front of the Wall - pure nonsense."

Explanation:

Answer 2

By July 1989, newspapers were still criticizing Bush for his lack of response to Gorbachev’s proposals. Bush visited Europe but "left undefined for those on both sides of the Iron Curtain his vision for the new world order," leading commentators to view the U.S. as over-cautious and reactive, rather than pursuing long-range strategic goals.
