Holding both domestic and international pillars that were statured upon military use and fighting against anything that stood for evil. Neoconcervation developed this notion of the democracy being the light of good and any competing ideology shadowed the darkness of evil.

    East of Eden was a well written book although in my opinion, i found it fascinating that the story was taken place in California since i'm from and living in California. I enjoyed reading about two families with many problems and hardships because it was very suspenseful and you can vividly imagine the craziness in your head of people dying, yelling, hiding secrets and hope it was a creepy community that does not exist. This book will appreciate your good health and your family. It will swallow your tongue till dawn.…

    The Cold War took off after the end of the Second World War when the United States and the Soviet Union emerged as the two global dominant superpowers each grasping ideologies that were dichotomous from each other. This adverse relationship continued for half a century and the clash of two distinct and differing political ideologies of communism and capitalism saw no clear conclusion or victory for either side. The tense atmosphere resonated not only in the United States and the Soviet Union, but also around the world and into space. For most of the fifty years of the cold war, the ideological struggle and the many indirect physical conflicts between the West and the Soviet Union were in a deadlock with no visible success of either side. However,…

    When President Ronald Wilson Reagan was elected in 1980 not many people would understand his significance as Reagan would be Re –elected again in 1984.Reagan would be remember for many thing during his eight years in the White House but most of all Reagan would be remembered for his cold war policy. Although critics of the President past and present have looked at Reagan as a figure head nothing could be further from the truth, especially in regards to his cold war policy and The Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). Critics have claimed Reagan had no intention of having such a missile defense system and that it was just floated out in a political move. Reagan was criticized by democrats, the press and even some of his party members. Though Reagan…

    When the Cold War was brought into an election, naturally it was discussed in terms of America. Sometimes foreign policy issues were decisive factors in the outcome of the vote, showing their relevance in American lives. Even so, this did not always mean these issues directly related to the rest of the world. The quoted interpretation is strong in its recognition of the America-centric view in translating domestic policy into foreign policy. However, this does not mean America had an inaccurate perception of the Cold War. On the contrary, the Cold War ultimately was defined by the United States’ perspective on the war, and more specifically, the issues on which its…

    Throughout its history, the United States has consistently illustrated valiant efforts to circumvent powers of evil, as well as mistakes that the US must learn from to prevent themselves from being deceived by enemies, both foreign and domestic. For example, during the Cold War, the United States wanted to “contain” communism to the regimes that had initially declared it as their standard of government, which is why the United States pleaded to the United Nations to intervene in the Korean War. Initially the United States was only to intervene under the containment doctrine which provided a limit as to how far the United States could push the North Korean forces back (which would be back to the 38th parallel, the initial border). Under these…

    The mentality of the Cold War greatly affected the decisions made by the Presidents that held the office from 1950 to 1974. The main thought that prevailed from the beginning of the Cold War was containment. It was the main goal of the United States to contain the spread of Communism whenever possible. “Brinkmanship” was the first major policy that was employed by the United States in the effort to stop the spread of Communism throughout the world. President Eisenhower’s Secretary of State John Foster Dulles coined the term “Brinkmanship”, which simply stated means using the military to push things to the brink of war without actually going to war. This was often used to intimidate the Soviet Union into backing down during the early part of the Cold War era. President Kennedy would take a slightly more flexible stance in terms of retaliation should an attack occur. However, it wouldn’t be until President Nixon took office that the metaphorical waters between the US and the Soviet Union would begin to calm.…

    “Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.” By conforming, it signals conceding to the dominant power which immediately gives up one’s freedom by letting them control you. This motivated the two superpowers in the Cold War as neither country wanted to concede to the dominant power. The Cold War had no large scale direct fighting and instead was political and military tension between the Western Bloc and Eastern Bloc. The Soviet Union and United States, opposing forces, pursued the desire to gain power and spread different systems of government by claiming land and forming alliances. Alliances began to form based on countries representing capitalism and others based on representing communism due to the Berlin Blockade. This…

    Watching the duck and cover makes one think, would hiding under a desk or jacket against a wall really save someone. Seeing this makes one think if living during the time of a nuclear war would be desirable, not that one has the choice but it would have to be a thought. According to this duck and cover video, a nuclear bomb warning can happen at any time and one would find somewhere that was considered safe and a good distance from windows to duck and cover. If one saw a bright flash then they were to duck underneath any clothing available and against any type of structure as soon as they possibly could to protect themselves. This era had to be extremely stressful, especially for the young children this video was being shown too. This video had to wreak havoc on a child’s subconscious.…
