Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This is a 5 page paper discussing the origins and cultural implications of the Cold War based mainly on the texts of Brower and Moss. The Cold War originated in the ashes of the Second World War when the countries devastated by war and those formerly occupied by German or Japanese forces were forming new alliances with the Allies or were trying to end their history of colonization. The United States and Russia supported decolonization while at the same time understood the value of strong alliances. The United States, France, Britain and West Germany formed an alliance in Europe and for the first time excluded the Soviets based on their Communist ideals and politics. Stalin was equally determined to form strong global alliances in his defence of mother Russia and in so doing the Iron Curtain was formed dividing Europe. The political and economic division continued and escalated for over forty years with the United States and the Western European states forming NATO as a coalition against the threat and force of Communism. The existence of the Cold War did not only have an affect on politics, economics and international relations but also affected greatly the social and cultural developments between the different cultures. In the United States, anti-Soviet themes were the basis of many Hollywood productions which were mirrored by the anti-American plays being produced in the Soviet Union.

The origins of the Cold War can best be traced to the economic and political turmoil which followed the end of the Second World War. Areas freed from
Japanese occupation wanted the end of colonial rule which in some cases wasnt met and started various "wars of national liberation". Meanwhile, the collapse of the Axis power in Europe
left Russia and the United State scampering in the reorganization of alliances and ownership (Brower 170). This led to the division of Europe in which the United States formed alliances
with the formation of the democratic countries in Western Europe in order to increase the economic opportunities available and Russia took the opportunity to establish or reestablish communist control over
