Relatively few people, in or out of the field of science, believe in Bigfoot. A purported Bigfoot sighting would likely be met with the same level of credulity as a discovery of Casper, Elvis, Tupac, or Santa Claus. With only 16 percent of Americans Bigfoot believers, you might just write them off as crazy. But contrary to popular assumption, folklore experts say, Bigfoot believers may not be as irrational as you’d think.
“It’s easy to assume … that people who believe in Bigfoot are being irrational in their belief,” says Lynne McNeill, Cal grad, folklore professor, and special guest on the reality TV show Finding Bigfoot. “But that’s really not true. People aren’t jumping to supernatural conclusions very often; people are being quite rational. It doesn’t mean they’re correct; it just means they’re thinking rationally.”

I don’t know what this means

La bipolaridad internacional causada por la Guerra Fría, que se desarrolló desde 1945 hasta 1991, tuvo como consecuencia principal la caída del comunismo del pedestal político en el que se encontraba hasta ese momento. El comunismo, en su esencia, fue derrotado por el capitalismo democrático defendido por el bloque occidental y, por lo tanto, perdió influencia en los países en los cuales se encontraba funcionando hasta ese momento. Así, países de Europa del Este gradualmente fueron dejando atrás el comunismo, y comenzaron a abrazar sistemas de mercado: liberalismo, socialdemocracia, etc.
Además, proscribió el uso de armas nucleares en el ámbito internacional, toda vez que la tensión generada en dicho período histórico llevó a severas restricciones y controles en la posesión y utilización de materiales bélicos nucleares.
