7 USBothUSSR Economy Believes in trade and profit at the expense of some of the people. Promotes Capitalism Wants to spend money on technology and science Spent a large portion of the national budget on developing weapons and defense systems The government should control wealth. The wealth of a country should be shared amongst the whole population There should be no competition because it could lead to extreme wealth and extreme poverty. Supports Socialism Government Wants to control countries that Italy and Japan had conquered during WWII Distrusts Stalin and his dictatorship. Wants to contain the spread of communism Used propaganda as a means to influence other countries Wants to control countries that Germany had conquered during WWII Distrusts nations that did not come to its immediate aid during WWII Promotes a weak Germany Wants to spread the influence of communism Weapons Use whatever means they could, short of war, to gain influence with other countries. Builds up nuclear bombs Armed smaller countries with weaker weapons. Long-term goals Financially supported countries that ally themselves with the ideas of democracy and capitalism Would like to limit the influence of the other. Financially supported countries that ally themselves with the ideas of communism

8 Restoring the Peace

9 Consider the US and the USSR Why would these two nations become enemies? Why would they decide to divide up the world? How is this decision related to economic systems? Communism Vs. Capitalism In Communism, all goods are collected from the whole territory (the larger, the more variety in goods) and redistributed to the population. There is NOTHING left over to trade with another country. In Capitalism, trade is the only way to succeed. You MUST compete in the market and sell your goods as often as possible to as many people as possible to be successful. Any Country that is Communist is Lost to the Americans. Any Country that is Capitalist is Lost to the Russians. Look at pg. 14A of your Notebook- Cornell Notes on Communism and Fascism.

13 Use the BASIC method to analyze this Cartoon on Pg. 38A Background Argument Symbolism Irony Caricatures

14 Please do Vocab Word Maps for: Cold War- From just after WWII until 1991, when the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. competed with one another to increase influence around the world Containment- U.S. policy directed at blocking Soviet influence and stopping the expansion of communism. Iron Curtain-Europe’s division between mostly democratic Western Europe and Communist Eastern Europe Super Power-An extremely powerful nation capable of influencing international events and the acts and policies of less powerful nations.

15 Cold War Map Assignment Pg. 40A/B: We will be taking graphic notes on this illustrated map. You will also take lecture notes on the main events of the Cold War. Your lecture notes can be in any form you want for this unit. You can do Cornell Notes, bubble graphs, picture Notes, bullet notes…. Any thing you want for lectures. All these notes will be Page 40

16 Iron Curtain Illustrate the following event on your Cold War Map. Use Chpt. 17, Sec 1, and the next slide to help you. Turn to the map on pg. 532, Draw a line between Eastern and Western Europe to show where the Iron Curtain fell. Include the Line color in the Key on the right Add the Iron Curtain to your Lecture Notes and underline it.

17 1945- Iron Curtain- From a speech by Winston Churchill The Iron Curtain was a symbol to show that Eastern and Western Europe were separated completely. Nothing could get through that imaginary barrier. No People in or out. No ideas in or out. No goods in or out. Russia feared their best, brightest most creative people would leave for a less structured life in the west and that westerners would corrupt the Russians.

19 Strategies of the Cold War The Cold War was not a conventional war. It was a war of Strategies over direct confrontation. Nearly everything that happened in the cold war can be divided into these 6 strategies: Foreign Aid Espionage Multinational Alliances Surrogate Wars Brinkmanship Propaganda Categorization is a useful organizational tool!

20 Examples of Foreign Aid and the Cold War Both the USA and the USSR wanted to avoid the kind of economic desperation that had helped Hitler rise to power. They knew they couldn't leave the countries of Europe with all the destruction and poverty left by WWII. They solved this problem by offering financial aid to the nations of Europe, and thus boosted their own economies as well. The Marshal Plan The Molotov Plan The Truman Doctrine US economic support of Batista in Cuba Russian Economic Aid to Egypt to build the Aswan Dam US economic support of the Contras in Nicaragua US economic support of the Shah in Iran

21 Marshall Plan- 1947 “European Recovery Program.”“European Recovery Program.” Imagined by Secretary of State, George MarshallImagined by Secretary of State, George Marshall The U. S. should provide aid to all European nations that need it. This move “is not against any country or doctrine, but against hunger, poverty, desperation, and chaos.”The U. S. should provide aid to all European nations that need it. This move “is not against any country or doctrine, but against hunger, poverty, desperation, and chaos.” $12.5 billion of US aid to Western Europe extended to Eastern Europe & USSR, (but this was rejected).$12.5 billion of US aid to Western Europe extended to Eastern Europe & USSR, (but this was rejected).

In your map key (on the Left), indicate that countries that color are members of the Molotov Plan Add the Molotov Plan to your Lecture Notes and underline it.

30 Truman Doctrine 1947 A Civil War broke out in Greece over limited resources. Turkey was under pressure from the USSR to give up part of the Dardanelles. (The USSR wanted a warm water port.) ‏ Truman felt the U. S. should support free peoples throughout the world who were resisting takeovers by armed minorities or outside pressures (he meant communists). “We must assist free peoples to work out their own destinies in their own way.” The U.S. gave Greece & Turkey $400 million in aid.

In your map key (on the Left), indicate that countries with that symbol benefited from the Truman Doctrine Add the Truman Doctrine to your Lecture Notes and underline it.

32 Multinational Alliances Alliances were meant to intimidate other countries into holding an attack. Any country in the alliance could call on all the others for help, thus causing an instant world war and no one wanted that. NATO- Democratic, Capitalist Nations of the West Warsaw Pact- Socialist, Communist Nations of the East Association of Non Aligned Nations- a Group of Independent Nations from South Asia and Africa who refused to take sides

36 Brinkmanship The Policy of threatening to go to war as a response to enemy aggression. You want a piece of This?!? Put this definition on the back of your map.

37 Examples of Brinkmanship and the Cold War Both the USA and the USSR wanted to avoid an all out Nuclear War. Instead of fighting directly, they paid others to fight for them, and then continued a kind of global game of “Chicken”. The following events are examples of when the two sides almost committed to total war, but then pulled back at the last minute and instead did something clever to stay in the game without losing face. The Berlin Blockade and Airlift The Korean War The Cuban Missile Crisis

38 Berlin Blockade & Airlift 1948-49‏ Russians try to claim West Berlin once and for all by starving them out. Water, power are cut. Ground transport is closed. Americans fly supplies to the people of West Berlin for almost a year. Eventually Russia gives up and opens roads and utility lines again….until next time….
