Thankfully, their services, in that aspect, were never needed. This virtual museum is for historical purposes and does not make fun of civil defense, however, I do throw in a few "light" comments here and there.

http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/coldwar1.htm

Extractions: The Cold War Contemporary Context: During the Second World War, the Western democracies had not been entirely comfortable about allying themselves with Stalinist Russia, and it didn't take long for this awkward partnership to fall apart. Over the next few years, the Soviets imposed Communist regimes in its post-war occupation zones in East Europe and North Korea. In China, the end of civil war brought a huge slice of the human population under Communist control, and mass execution of politcal opponents followed. As the 1940s progressed, the West decided to form a system of defensive alliances to prevent any further spread of Communism. The Organization of American States was founded in 1945 to coordinate the foreign policy of the Western Hemisphere, while all the principle nations of West Europe and North America were joined into the the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (N ATO in 1947. Across the south of Asia, two more American alliance systems, C ENTO Central Treaty Organization ) and S EATO Southeast Asia Treaty Organization ), were established to contain possible Soviet expansion southward. By 1959, most of the non-Communist World had promised to be

http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/coldwar2.htm

Extractions: The Cold War 1960-1991 Contemporary Context: The alliance system began to unravel in 1959 when Communist insurgents came to power in Cuba, gaining their first foothold in the Western Hemisphere and setting off a chain reaction of crises which came very close to bringing about a full nuclear exchange between the superpowers. A more visible result of the various Cuban crises is that hemispheric unity was shaken as several Latin American countries, principly Mexico, decided that snubbing Cuba was not worth the risk and maintained diplomatic and economic relations despite the objections of the United States. Meanwhile, the Soviets lost major ground in 1960, when China broke away after bickering over interpretations of Marxist doctrine, taking Albania and North Korea with them. China then tested its first atomic weapon in 1964 and withdrew from the world stage to indulge in the purifying ritual of the Cultural Revolution. About the same time, France decided that it didn't like its foreign policy being dictated by the United States, so it tested its first atomic weapon in 1960, and withdrew from N ATO in 1965. Although it was almost certain that the French would be found on the American side in the event of a general European war, until then the French would pursue a foreign policy which was neither pro-Soviet nor pro-American but merely French.

Extractions: U.S. Propaganda Activities in the Middle East WASHINGTON, D.C. - The National Security Archive at George Washington University today published on the World Wide Web documents concerned with an early Cold War campaign to win hearts and minds in the Middle East, launched 50 years before current efforts to achieve United States "public diplomacy" goals in the region. Soon after the events of September 11, the administration of George W. Bush announced a wide-ranging campaign to improve the image of America in Arab countries and in the greater Muslim world. One year later, its results appear unimpressive: a recent Pew Research Center poll found increasingly unfavorable international views of the U.S., "most dramatically, in Muslim societies."

Virtual War College - Liberalism In International Relations
This paper focusses on the resurgence of Liberalism in International Relations after the cold war and a guide as to where to look for further information.
http://www.geocities.com/virtualwarcollege/ir_liberal.htm

Extractions: This paper focuses on the resurgence of Liberalism after the Cold War. Karl Marx declared that capitalism would inevitably collapse: the bourgeoisie generating their own grave-diggers. Adolph Hitler proclaimed that his was a thousand-year Reich . With a similar sense of triumphalism, Francis Fukuyama announced the end of history. Fukuyama used "history" to mean the progression of mankind and human thinking in particular. History had ended because the ideology of "liberalism" had triumphed. Liberal democratic regimes had seen off communism and totalitarianism, and liberal economics with their emphasis in free markets had also established themselves as the modern orthodoxy. A nearly as dramatic claim, and certainly a more influential one, was that of United States President George Bush: we were heading into a "New World Order". Initially he saw the disintegration of the Soviet Union in much the same way as Fukuyama - a victory of the liberal ideology - however with the passage of time and new threats such as Iraq’s aggression Kuwait, his description of the New World Order changed subtly but importantly. Increasingly, the New World Order was something to be enforced by the organs of the United Nations, with the United States playing a leading role.

Who Lost Russia?
A discussion of the failure of reform in many aspects of domestic politics and policy in Russia since the end of the cold war.
http://www.heritage.org/Research/RussiaandEurasia/HL629.cfm

Extractions: The debate over who lost Russia is now under way. It is perhaps premature to frame the issue in this way: Russia certainly is not yet lost entirely, but the country is in dire straits. There is plenty of blame to go around for Russia's troubles, and most of it, in my opinion, lies with Russia. As The New York Times columnist A. M. Rosenthal wrote recently: "Russia did this to Russia." True, Russia has faced many unique challenges since the collapse of the Soviet Unionchallenges unlike those faced by former communist countries in East and Central Europe such as Poland. A comparison with Poland is instructive in this regard. After the collapse of communism, Poland found freedom and renewal; Russia felt the loss of empire and ideology. Russia lost its identity; Poland rediscovered its identity. Poland could remember what the market was like and rebuild it when free to do so; Russia, after 70 years of communism, had forgotten. Poland had not collectivized its agriculture; decades of collectivization in Russia made introducing market reforms into that crucial sector of the economy, much as China had done, extremely difficult. And throughout the communist era, Poland had the Catholic Church to provide spiritual direction. Officially atheist, Russia had no such spiritual direction and sank instead into cynicism, selfishness, and even criminality.

Collection of essays including 'The New Evils of the 21st Century' by Robert D. Kaplan, 'Weapons of Mass Destruction and Physical Heritage of the cold war' by W.K.H. Panofsky, and 'Group Loyalty and Ethnic Violence' by Donald L. Horowitz. PDF
http://www.amacad.org/publications/violent.htm

Extractions: Table of Contents Order from the Academy Will key political events of the 21st century blindside modern experts? Will the most serious threats to society be anticipated or even recognized by those who witnessed the Cold War, the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Soviet Union? To what degree is our experience with deterrence, arms races and alliance structures relevant to current destabilizing forces? This collection of essays deals with these timely questions. The essays were prepared for a December 1997 conference of that name sponsored by the Midwest Consortium for International Security Studies (MCISS), a program of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. They probe how international security studies must redefine its concerns in order to remain pertinent; for example, how might illicit traffic in nuclear materials or catastrophic damage to national infrastructure cause large-scale violence? Several papers extend this analysis to study how violence may be mitigated using, for example, an improved understanding of social identity and group loyalty or the creation of a transboundary legal order.
