Cold War

Cold War Cold War: Postwar Estrangement The Western democracies and the Soviet Union discussed the progress of World War II and the nature of the postwar settlement at conferences in Tehran (1943), Yalta (February 1945), and Potsdam (July-August 1945). After the war, disputes between the Soviet Union and the Western democracies, particularly over the Soviet takeover of East European states, led Winston Churchill to warn in 1946 that an "iron curtain" was descending through the middle of Europe. For his part, Joseph Stalin deepened the estrangement between the United States and the Soviet Union when he asserted in 1946 that World War II was an unavoidable and inevitable consequence of "capitalist imperialism" and implied that such a war might reoccur. The Cold War was a period of East-West Read More

Forging the Iron Curtain in the Balkans, 1944-1956

Votes:0
Twenty-Five Lectures on Modern Balkan History Lecture 21: Forging the Iron Curtain in the Balkans, 1944-1956 Previous lecture / Complete list of lectures / Next lecture Winston Churchill was talking about the Cold War in Eastern Europe when he referred to the "Iron Curtain" in a well-known speech of 1946. The end of World War II and the beginning of the Cold War are intertwined. Stereotypical views of the origin of the Cold War either blame it on Stalinist aggression or take the "revisionist" view and blame it on aggressive American actions that led to Soviet responses. These views share two failings: They reduce the roles of the Balkan states, their leaders and their populations to that of pawns; and They gloss over the significant differences in local events in the various Balkan states.

John Kennedy and the Cold War

Votes:0
Kennedy and the Cold War T hroughout his pre-presidential career, JFK was an active Cold Warrior. As noted, his first Congressional campaign boasted of taking on the anti-Cold War faction of the Democratic party led by Henry Wallace, and as a congressman he aligned himself with those who said the Truman Administration wasn't being tough enough, when he willingly attached his name to the chorus demanding "Who Lost China?" One does not even have to rehash his relationship with Joseph McCarthy to show how JFK willingly played the "tough on communism" issue in all his campaigns. In 1952, while running for the Senate, he proudly trumpeted the fact that during his first term in the House, even before Nixon had won fame for the exposure of Alger Hiss, JFK's work on a labor committee led to the co Read More
