Cold War (12 marzo 1947 anni – 26 dic 1991 anni)

Descrizione:

– it’s the Cold War narrative –, the real enemy behind everything is not the British Empire. It’s not
the oligarchy, it’s not that. It’s the Chinese communists that want to destroy your freedoms, that’s
who’s behind everything. And a lot of people fall into that, and I think that to the degree that they
hold onto those Cold War narratives, they’re going to self-sabotage their overarching desires to
have a successful battle against this oligarchical thing.

Following its leading role in World War II saw the emergence of the Soviet Union as an industrialized superpower, with strong influence over Eastern Europe and parts of Asia.

The European and Japanese empires were shattered and communist parties played a leading role in many independence movements.

Marxist–Leninist governments modeled on the Soviet Union took power with Soviet assistance in Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Poland, Hungary, and Romania.

A Marxist–Leninist government was also created under Josip Broz Tito in Yugoslavia, but Tito's independent policies led to the expulsion of Yugoslavia from the Cominform, which had replaced the Comintern, and Titoism was branded deviationist.

Albania also became an independent Marxist–Leninist state after World War II.

Communism was seen as a rival of and a threat to Western capitalism for most of the 20th century.
