This question asks for an essay, which is a task that only you can complete. However, we can provide some information that can help you start your work.

The Cold War was a period in history in which the Soviet Union and the United States (along with their respective allies) engaged in an ideological and geopolitical struggle for global influence. While the United States argued that its main objective was to spread democracy all over the world, I believe that the politics of this time were mainly dominated by a desire to be the most influential country in the world.

This is supported by the fact that many of the decisions that the United States   made during this time period seem motivated more by a desire to compete with the Soviet Union than to benefit other countries. For example, the Space Race had no impact on democracy abroad. Nevertheless, it was an essential component of the Cold War and of gaining preeminence over the Soviet Union. Similarly, rivalry in sports and nuclear arsenal development are more closely related to a struggle for geopolitical influence than a desire to spread democracy.

Where is a modern day golden age society?
Elan Coil [88]
<span>I think western society is in its golden age. I think this because it has spread to every continent on the face of the planet. Music usually associated with western culture is pop, rock, and my of course country music. Intellectually western society usually offers free public education but colleges normally cost to money attend. You can also acquire a scholarship by other means or receive a grant and study at a college for a reduced price or entirely free. Western medicine can be good and bad. Yes we now have more powerful and concentrated medicines that can help or treat problems but a lot of them have some undesired side effects due to their chemical nature. Also modern western medicine practitioners for some reason underestimate natural medicines when natural medicine should always be considered first before taking a man made substance. In western society politics and economics run hand in hand quite a bit since powerful politicians have a big influence not just in western economy but in world economy but like any other economy western economy is mainly maintained through trade. Most westernized countries carry a form of democracy similar to the one the United States was formed under. Politicians are elected into congress by peoples votes and then after they are elected they can run for higher offices if they wish much like climbing a ladder. Social developments from western society are things like the idea that we all have rights, like a right to free speech, equal treatment, and a fair trial as long as you didn’t do a crime against the government or foreign interest group, like a bank. The United States has hundreds of charities that help people and children in need we also fund the red cross. Other social developments are things like social networking like Facebook, youtube, or reddit , they are websites that help people connect and communicate as well as share pictures or videos.</span>
