Ideas
to remember
•How did Europe come
to be dominated by the two superpowers after 1945?
Trace the stages of the Cold War. Why were 1956 and 1962 particularly
crucial
years? How strong an alliance is NATO today?
•How would you
define the policy of "containment"? Give some
specific examples of how this policy was instituted by the United
States
throughout the world from 1945 to 1989?
• Discuss the
following incidents as crucial examples of the Cold War:
Berlin Airlift; Truman Doctrine; Marshall Plan; Suez Canal Crisis;
Cuban
Missile Crisis; Dien Bien Phu. Which do you think was the
quintessential
example of Cold War confrontation and why?
• After World War
II, Europe "achieved unprecedented economic
prosperity and maintained liberal democratic governments." How did
Western
Europe move toward political and economic unity?
• Discuss the
collapse of Yugoslavia and the civil war between the many
ethnic factions present. Why did war break out and who were the
aggressors? How
have matters been resolved? What forces still threaten political
stability?
• Trace the stages
of decolonization. Why did the nations of Europe give
up their empires? Was the retreat orderly?
•Discuss the
interrelationship of decolonization and the Cold War in
Vietnam. Why did the United States fail there? What was the effect of
the
Vietnam War on Europe?
•Trace the collapse
of communism in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union.
How important was Gorbachev in transforming the political and economic
atmosphere of the Soviet Union? Why did he fail? How did things change
under
Boris Yeltsin? What problems still face Russia today?
