Military and Political Consequences of the Cold War

Content: Since no treaties were signed to formalize the end of cold war, superpowers are still maintaining and improving as well as modifying their nuclear weapons. Politically, the cold war created the impression that there were two main political ideologies. These were communism and capitalism ideologies. The United States supported the capitalism ideology while the Soviet Union supported the communist ideology. Each strived to spread its ideology across the world. The ideologies motivated and shaped political conceptions of people and organizations in different countries. The impact of cold war on politics was not only geopolitical, but also philosophical. Geopolitically, cold war was aimed at establishing control over Eurasian land mass and then controls global preponderance. To each side, the control of each side had to be ejected from the eastern and western fringes of the Eurasia. Effective containment of the ideology of the other side had to be established and this would determine the ultimate geostrategic result of the competition.
