Why COLD?

• 2 rivals never actually directly engaged each other

• Engaged in proxy wars:– war that results when 2 powers use 3rd parties as

substitutes for fighting each other directly.

• Why not face each other directly?– Too risky….

– Too HOT….

It felt HOT…

• Propaganda used on both sides• Rivals seen as imminent threat to

survival of nation-- as EVIL• Domino theory based on fear &

assumption that fall of one country to communism would bring about the fall of its neighbor…..

• Acknowledged the power of ideology…

• World gets divided into blocs:– Warsaw Pact– NATO

• Those who tried to stay out: non-aligned nations

• Stockpile enough nuclear weapons so as to make actual conflict too risky:– Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD)
