A World Divided: Superpower Relations, 1943-72

Akopọ

In 1943 the United States and the Soviet Union were allies fighting the same enemy. Within four years they were describing each other as the principal threat to civilisation, and within twenty they came closer to nuclear war than at any other point in history. No shot was ever fired directly between them, which is why the period is called a cold war, but millions died in the conflicts it produced elsewhere.

This note takes you from the wartime conferences through the division of Europe, the Berlin Blockade, Korea, Hungary, the three crises of Berlin, Cuba and Czechoslovakia, and on to the arms control agreements of detente. It also gives you the tools to argue about the question historians have never settled: who was responsible?

Akọ̀wé Ẹ̀kọ́

The alliance of 1941 to 1945 was one of convenience against Germany, and the distrust underneath it was older than the war. The United States and Britain had sent troops to support the anti-Bolshevik side in the Russian Civil War after 1918; the United States did not recognise the Soviet government until 1933; and Stalin had signed the Nazi-Soviet Pact in August 1939. During the war, Stalin repeatedly pressed for a second front in western Europe and did not get one until June 1944, which he interpreted as the Western allies waiting for Germany and the USSR to exhaust each other.
