Cold War (1947-1953) and its origins Many believe the Cold War was an inevitable conflict between the two continent sized states, each with huge reserves of manpower and natural resources who were destined to compete for world preeminence. In a historic diplomatic blunder, the Soviets boycotted the UN Security Council, and thus its power to veto Truman's action in the UN, because the UN would not admit the People's Republic of China. World System theorists have argued that Russia was late to be absorbed by the capitalist world-system, and only in its periphery or semi-periphery upon the Bolshevik Revolution, leaving it ripe for a radical break with capitalism. www.sciencedaily.com /encyclopedia/cold_war__1947_1953__and_its_origins   (3465 words)

The Nordic Countries and the Cold War, 1945-91 (DRAFT) - Nordic Council / Nordic Council of Ministers To put the topic in its proper international context, the Reykjavik conference began with a lively roundtable on the New Cold War History with the participation of John Gaddis (Yale University), Geir Lundestad (Norwegian Nobel Institute), Odd Arne Westad (London School of Economics), James Hershberg (George Washington University), and Krister Wahlbäck (Swedish Foreign Ministry). Second, during the early Cold War, the Soviets took a rather inflexible attitude toward the Nordic Communist parties and displayed on ideological grounds unmitigated hostility toward Social Democracy in the Nordic region. The Nordics were reluctant Cold Warriors and tried, with varying degrees of success, to assume some sort of a "bridgebuilding" function in the Cold War. www.norden.org /niv_eng/cold_war.htm   (5247 words)

H-Net Review: Michael D. Callahan on Imperial Diplomacy in the Era of Decolonization: The Sudan and Anglo-Egyptian Relations, 1945-1956 Britain's administration of the Sudan from 1945 to 1956 not only had a profound impact on the territory itself and the relationship between London and Cairo, but also had far-reaching consequences for the histories of Britain, Africa, and the Middle East and for the Cold War. Despite last minute attempts by British officials in Khartoum to keep the South, with its strong cultural, ethnic, and geographic differences, separate from the North, the Sudan government could not prevent an Anglo-Egyptian agreement in 1953, which required Britain to leave the dependency within three years. Further, while the Sudan Political Service may have undermined the Bevin-Sidqi Protocol, without an understanding of the opposition groups in Egypt, the internal debates of the Egyptian government, and Sidqi's interpretation of events, it is hard to be sure that British officials in Khartoum alone caused the failure of Anglo-Egyptian negotiations in 1947. www.h-net.msu.edu /reviews/showrev.cgi?path=25762858695891   (2106 words)
