7 0

Throughout the Cold War the United States of America saw economic prosperity and a dramatic improvement in its standards of living. This gave the US a huge degree of power in the international arena, but to what degree did this power help it to claim victory in the Cold War? This essay will weigh up the ways in which the economic supremacy of the US led to their victory in the Cold War against the ways in which its foreign policy may have helped. These views will then be criticised and evaluated to conclude that each was important in different ways due to it being the economic power that enabled the US to pursue financially intensive foreign policies such as the arms race and enabled it to negotiate from a position of strength with the USSR in the 1980s.

Can someone please give a good reason on how they feel about war

Answer: War is not anything good and it’s usually caused with hate and ends up with lots of violence. I believe war is the something that shouldn’t be allowed and completely illegal not just to the public also government wise. There are many ways to argue or disagree with others but not by violence, you can use you words to fight for what you believe or want.

How did the Cold War influence desegregation in the U.S.?

sertanlavr [38]

Answer: It encouraged the U.S. to desegregate, because the Soviets claimed they supported equality for all people.

Explanation:

The United States kept claiming to be the beacon of democracy and equality around the world yet she was segregating against members of her own citizenry by keeping black people against from white people.

The Soviet Union always seized upon this to show the world that the U.S. was not actually equal and that the Soviet Union was more equal than the U.S. This was during the time of the Cold War and the U.S. did not like the fact that the Soviets held the moral high ground and so actively tried to end segregation.
