US foreign policy during the Cold War aimed to contain the spread of communism and strengthen America's global influence. In Cuba, US attempts to overthrow Fidel Castro through covert operations like the failed Bay of Pigs invasion scared Castro into allowing Soviet nuclear weapons on the island. This led to the Cuban Missile Crisis and brought the US and USSR to the brink of nuclear war. Tensions were high due to both sides' fear of the other gaining military advantages in regions like Europe and the Caribbean.

Cuban missile crisis
The Cuban Missile Crisis arose when U.S. spy planes discovered Soviet nuclear missiles installed in Cuba, just 90 miles from Florida. President John F. Kennedy imposed a naval blockade of Cuba and demanded the missiles' removal. For 13 days, the U.S. and USSR brought the world to the brink of nuclear war before the Soviets removed the missiles, easing tensions. The crisis highlighted the dangers of the Cold War and led to new communication between the superpowers.
Cuban Missile Crisis
The Cuban Missile Crisis began in October 1962 when the U.S. discovered that the Soviet Union was constructing secret missile bases in Cuba. Over the next two weeks, President Kennedy implemented a naval blockade around Cuba and demanded that the Soviet Union remove the missiles. A tense standoff ensued as Soviet commanders were ordered to launch missiles if the U.S. invaded. Eventually, Soviet premier Khrushchev agreed to remove the missiles and the crisis ended.
Cuban Missile Crisis - Sec 4E History
The Cuban Missile Crisis arose from escalating tensions between the US and Cuba following Fidel Castro's rise to power in 1959. Castro aligned Cuba with the Soviet Union and received economic support after the US imposed sanctions. In 1962, the Soviet Union began secretly installing nuclear missiles in Cuba, intending to deter a US invasion and gain leverage over the US's missiles in Turkey. The US discovered the missiles through aerial photographs and implemented a naval blockade around Cuba. For 13 days, the world stood on the brink of nuclear war as the US and USSR brought forces to high alert and negotiated a resolution. Ultimately, the Soviets agreed to remove the Cuban missiles in exchange for the US agreeing to eventually remove its missiles in Turkey. The crisis emphasized
Cuban Missile Crisis, 1962
The document provides background information on the Cuban Missile Crisis between the United States and Soviet Union in 1962. It explains that Cuba had established a communist government under Fidel Castro after he overthrew the US-backed dictator Batista in 1959. In 1961, the USSR began providing military support to Cuba, including missiles. This alarmed the US and increased tensions. In October 1962, US reconnaissance photos revealed Soviet missile sites under construction in Cuba, escalating the crisis. President John F. Kennedy imposed a blockade on Cuba and demanded the Soviets remove the missiles. After several tense days of negotiations, the USSR agreed to dismantle the missile sites and the crisis was resolved.

Cuban Missle Crisis Project
The document summarizes the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. On October 15th, a U-2 spy plane took photos revealing Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba. President Kennedy convened advisers and considered options like air strikes or invasion. He decided on a blockade to pressure the Soviets without military confrontation. Over the next two weeks, as reconnaissance continued and the military was put on high alert, Kennedy and Khrushchev communicated via letters. On October 28th, Khrushchev announced the Soviet Union would dismantle its missiles in Cuba, ending the crisis and averting nuclear war.
Causes of the Cuban Missile Crisis – Khrushchev's view of Kennedy
Nikita Khrushchev viewed John F. Kennedy as inexperienced and weak due to his youth and the domestic problems facing the US. At their 1961 Vienna summit, Khrushchev bullied Kennedy and was emboldened by his perceived inability to stop construction of the Berlin Wall. Khrushchev believed placing nuclear missiles in Cuba would call Kennedy's resolve without risk of war, but misjudged that the US would not tolerate such threats so close to home. This miscalculation and view of Kennedy as distracted by domestic issues led to Khrushchev's disastrous decision to place missiles in Cuba and the ensuing Cuban Missile Crisis.
Cold War - events before and during the cuban missile crisis
The document summarizes the key events of the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. It describes how the Soviet Union placed nuclear weapons in Cuba, which led to a major confrontation between the US and USSR as they brought the world close to nuclear war. Through secret negotiations and naval blockades, the crisis was eventually resolved when the Soviets agreed to remove the missiles from Cuba in exchange for the US removing missiles from Turkey and Italy. The crisis highlighted the dangers of the Cold War and motivated both sides to establish communication links to prevent future crises from escalating.

The Cuban Missile Crisis
The Cuban Missile Crisis occurred in October 1962 and brought the US and Soviet Union close to nuclear war. The Soviet Union had placed nuclear missiles in Cuba to counter the US's nuclear advantage. US reconnaissance flights discovered the missile sites under construction in Cuba. President Kennedy established a naval blockade of Cuba and demanded the Soviets remove the missiles. After several tense days of negotiations, the Soviets agreed to remove the missiles in exchange for the US agreeing not to invade Cuba and removing its missiles from Turkey. The crisis ended on October 28th, averting nuclear conflict.
Causes of the Cuban Missile Crisis – Khrushchev's domestic position
Nikita Khrushchev faced domestic challenges as the Soviet leader from 1953-1964. He criticized Stalin in a 1956 speech, angering Stalin supporters and encouraging anti-Soviet revolts. This made Khrushchev unpopular and worried about challenges to his leadership. His agricultural and religious policies also failed and were unpopular. Placing missiles in Cuba may have been an attempt to strengthen his position by appearing stronger against the US and distracting from domestic issues, though confronting the US carried great risks if unsuccessful.
Cuban missile crisis
The Cuban Missile Crisis occurred in October 1962 when U.S. reconnaissance flights discovered Soviet nuclear missiles being installed in Cuba, just 90 miles from Florida. This placed major U.S. cities within range of nuclear attack. President John F. Kennedy created a committee called EXCOMM to discuss options. After initially considering air strikes, Kennedy opted for a naval blockade of Cuba. Soviet ships turned back from the blockade, but tensions escalated until Soviet leader Khrushchev agreed to remove the missiles in exchange for a U.S. promise not to invade Cuba. The crisis highlighted the dangers of the Cold War between the U.S. and Soviet Union.

CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS AND RATIONAL ACTOR MODEL
The document describes the rational actor model of decision making and its application during the Cuban Missile Crisis. It outlines the steps of the rational actor model: identify the problem, goals, alternatives; analyze costs/benefits of alternatives; select the alternative that maximizes achieving goals. During the Crisis, President Kennedy and advisors followed this process, deliberating options like air strikes or invasion versus diplomacy. They ultimately implemented a naval quarantine of Cuba to peacefully resolve the situation.
The Cold War
Germany surrendered in 1945 and was divided and occupied by the Allies. The Potsdam Conference established this division and began de-Nazification efforts. Europe was largely bankrupt after the war while the US and USSR emerged as new superpowers. The Soviets wanted to rebuild the German economy to their benefit while the Americans prioritized self-determination, leading to the origins of the Cold War between them. Japan also surrendered in 1945 after atomic bombs were dropped and was remade under US occupation with a new constitution and demilitarization. These postwar changes established the foundations for the ensuing global Cold War conflict between capitalist and communist ideologies.

Coercive diplomacy
Coercive diplomacy is the diplomacy of threats. Rather than relying on negotiation, diplomats will sometimes threaten adverse consequences if a demand is not met. Sometimes this works; at other times, it does not.
Factors that influence the success of coercive diplomacy are similar to the factors that influence the success of other types of threats: the threat must be credible, the adverse consequence must be severe enough that the potential recipient really wants to avoid that outcome, and the demand must be clear and possible to meet. Even when these factors are present however, coercive diplomacy is risky. As with other threats, it tends further damage relationships and lead to a potential backlash against the threat and/or the threatening country later on. Backlash can, at times, be limited if the threat is combined with more integrative or exchange-based approaches. If rewards for compliance are offered in addition to the threat for non-compliance, the chances of success may be greater; also if the threat is seen to be legitimate, the chances of success may also rise.
Eisenhower's Cold War Policies - 5/13/09
During Eisenhower's presidency from 1953 to 1961, he pursued several Cold War policies focused on containing the spread of communism. These included developing nuclear weapons through the Strategic Air Command to support a policy of massive retaliation. Eisenhower also engaged in brinkmanship, threatening nuclear attacks to end conflicts like the Korean War and Taiwan Crisis. Covert CIA operations overthrew governments in Iran and Guatemala that were becoming aligned with the Soviet Union. Eisenhower also established the Eisenhower Doctrine to contain Soviet influence in the Middle East.
Nuclear Proliferation
The document discusses different types of nuclear weapons such as fission and fusion bombs. It describes the gun and implosion methods used for early fission bombs and the Teller-Ulam design commonly used for thermonuclear weapons. The effects of a nuclear explosion are outlined as blast, thermal radiation, ionizing radiation, and residual radiation. Details are provided on nuclear testing conducted by various countries and images are shown from early tests. Nuclear arms control treaties like the Limited Test Ban Treaty, Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, and Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty are summarized.
Truman-Foreign Policy
Truman pursued an aggressive foreign policy in response to the rise of communism in the postwar world. Some key aspects included establishing the UN for international cooperation, occupying Japan to rebuild it as a democracy, and implementing the containment policy to rollback Soviet expansion in Europe and Asia through policies like the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan. This involved providing economic and military aid to countries threatened by communism like Greece, Turkey, and West Berlin during the Berlin Airlift crisis. However, communism still spread to China which became a loss for Truman's containment efforts.
HUAC
The document summarizes the Hollywood Blacklist period in the 1940s-1950s when the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) investigated Hollywood for alleged communist influence. It describes how 10 people who refused to cooperate with HUAC's questioning became known as the Hollywood Ten and were imprisoned and blacklisted. It then provides biographies of several of the Hollywood Ten, including their careers and how they were impacted by being blacklisted.
Higher history revision notes - cold war (vietnam and cuba)
The document provides context and arguments regarding the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. It discusses reasons for the Soviet Union placing nuclear missiles in Cuba, including in response to US missiles in Turkey and efforts to spread communism. The US saw it as a threat and imposed a naval blockade on Cuba until the USSR agreed to remove the missiles. Tensions rose between the superpowers and the crisis highlighted ideological differences and the dangers of the arms race during the Cold War.
The Gulf War
The Gulf War began on August 2, 1990 when Iraq invaded Kuwait, wanting control of their oil reserves. In response, a US-led coalition formed to force Iraq's withdrawal from Kuwait. After passing UN resolutions and deadlines, the coalition launched an air campaign on January 16, 1991 followed by a ground invasion on February 24th. By February 26th, a decisive tank battle against the Republican Guard occurred, and on February 28th a ceasefire was declared, forcing the withdrawal of Iraqi troops from Kuwait and ending the Gulf War.
Cuban missile crisis
The Cuban Missile Crisis erupted in October 1962 when U.S. reconnaissance flights discovered that the Soviet Union was installing nuclear-armed missiles in Cuba, just 90 miles from Florida. This posed an immediate threat to the U.S. as missiles stationed so close could strike targets across much of America without warning. In response, President Kennedy imposed a naval blockade around Cuba and demanded that the Soviets remove the missiles. The crisis intensified as Soviet ships approached the blockade but negotiations continued. Ultimately, the Soviets agreed to withdraw the missiles in exchange for assurances from the U.S. that it would not invade Cuba, helping to resolve the crisis peacefully.

During the 1970s, relations between the US and USSR improved through a policy of détente, with both sides taking steps to reduce nuclear weapons and the risk of war. Key events included Nixon's visit to China and Moscow in 1972, the SALT I agreement that limited nuclear weapons, and the Helsinki Accords in 1975 that established agreements on borders and human rights. However, détente ended in the late 1970s due to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979.
Lecture 2 -Technology, Innovation and Great Power Competition
The lecture focused on China's grand strategy and goals under Xi Jinping. Xi aims to dilute U.S. influence in Asia, displace American power from the region, and ultimately dominate a global order more suited to China. There are signs China is using intimidation, coercion, and other aggressive tactics to advance these goals. The lecture also discussed challenges facing the U.S. in countering China's ambitions and strategy across various domains like the military, economy, and technology. Students presented group projects focusing on developing solutions to challenges in U.S.-China competition.
Cuban Missile Crisis
The Cuban Missile Crisis occurred in October 1962 when the U.S. discovered that the Soviet Union had placed nuclear missiles in Cuba. Over the following two weeks, the U.S. and USSR engaged in a tense standoff as President Kennedy demanded the missiles be removed and Soviet leader Khrushchev refused. They eventually reached an agreement where Khrushchev withdrew the missiles in exchange for a promise from the U.S. not to invade Cuba. This crisis brought the two superpowers closest to nuclear war and highlighted the need for improved communication between them.

cll
Khrushchev underestimated the young President Kennedy, believing him to be inexperienced due to his ineffective response to the Bay of Pigs invasion and lack of military response to the Berlin Wall. This led Khrushchev to approve placing nuclear missiles in Cuba to gain a strategic advantage, but he misjudged Kennedy's resolve. Kennedy imposed a blockade on Cuba and secured a deal with Khrushchev to remove the missiles in exchange for pledging not to invade Cuba, bringing the world to the brink of nuclear war.
The united states and cuba
The document discusses the Cuban Revolution, Bay of Pigs invasion, and Cuban Missile Crisis between the United States and Cuba. Fidel Castro overthrew the US-backed dictator in 1959 and aligned Cuba with the Soviet Union. In 1961, the CIA backed an invasion of Cuban exiles at the Bay of Pigs to overthrow Castro, but it failed.

Cold War 7th Period Guyer
The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the United States and Soviet Union after World War II. They disagreed on issues like government, economics, and power. While not a direct war, they engaged in conflicts by proxy and competed for influence around the world. The Cuban Missile Crisis occurred in 1962 when the US discovered Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba, bringing the two in a standoff until the USSR agreed to remove the missiles in exchange for assurances against invading Cuba. This event highlighted tensions and led to direct communication lines between the two nations.
Coldwar
The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the United States and Soviet Union from 1945-1991. The two superpowers established opposing military alliances - NATO and the Warsaw Pact - and engaged in an arms race including developing nuclear weapons. This rivalry led to regional proxy wars in Korea and Vietnam as the US sought to contain the spread of communism through military interventions and economic aid like the Marshall Plan. Tensions escalated during events like the Berlin Blockade and Cuban Missile Crisis, bringing the world close to nuclear war before relations gradually improved in the later Cold War era.
Bmc cold war lect 4_cuban_missilecrisis
The Cuban Missile Crisis arose from the USSR secretly placing nuclear missiles in Cuba, which the US saw as a threat. After US aerial photos showed the missiles, President Kennedy imposed a naval blockade on Cuba. The crisis was resolved when Khrushchev agreed to remove the missiles in exchange for the US agreeing not to invade Cuba and removing its missiles from Turkey. The crisis improved US-Soviet relations and led to increased cooperation to limit nuclear weapons proliferation, but weakened Khrushchev's position in the USSR.

Cold War tensions increased during the 1960s due to escalating conflicts between the US and Soviet Union, such as the Bay of Pigs invasion, Berlin Wall, and Cuban Missile Crisis, which brought the two superpowers closest to nuclear war. President Kennedy worked to contain communism through policies like the Peace Corps but also faced challenges from the USSR, most dangerously when Soviet missiles were placed in Cuba. These events heightened fears of communism and nuclear conflict between the US and Soviet Union during the Cold War.
Standard 21_ 1960s America.pptx
The document provides context about key events in 1960s America related to escalation of the Cold War and domestic issues. Some key points:
- The Cold War escalated between the US and Soviet Union, threatening nuclear conflict. America disagreed over military involvement abroad.
- Cuba transitioned to a communist regime under Castro after the failed Bay of Pigs invasion. This brought Soviet missiles to Cuba and nearly caused nuclear war during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
- America increasingly intervened in Vietnam amid the Domino Theory, but the Tet Offensive showed the war was not close to ending as believed.
- At home, civil rights legislation aimed to desegregate schools and public spaces, while protests grew.
Cold war part_2_crises_of_the_cold_war
The Cold War featured ideological competition between capitalist United States and communist Soviet Union and their allies. Both sides built alliances like NATO and Warsaw Pact and stockpiled nuclear weapons, risking global destruction. Berlin became a flashpoint as the divided city's West part was surrounded by East Germany. The USSR blockaded West Berlin in 1948 but the US airlifted supplies until the blockade ended. To stop emigration, East Germany later built the Berlin Wall. Another crisis occurred in 1962 when US discovered Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba, bringing the superpowers close to war until the USSR removed the missiles.

Sources A and B provide differing interpretations of the early growth of Protestantism in Scotland in the 1550s-1560s. Source A emphasizes that many Scots were dissatisfied with the Catholic Church and open to Protestant ideas due to works criticizing the Catholic Church. Source B stresses the impact of Protestant preachers like John Knox and the support of powerful lords and the passing of laws against Protestant literature.
Source C outlines the Second Book of Discipline's vision of an independent Kirk governed by presbyteries and assemblies rather than bishops or the Crown. It notes James VI's opposition to these plans in 1581, with Presbyterians believing the King should submit to the Kirk, while the King and nobility disagreed
Higher Migration and Empire - reasons for emigrant scots' success
The document discusses reasons for the success of many emigrant Scots in building new lives in other parts of the British Empire from 1830-1939. It states that Scots often succeeded due to factors like their nationality, English language abilities, education levels, reputation for hard work, skills in demanded fields, establishment of businesses and communities, and support from the British government and other Scots abroad. However, not all emigrant Scots found success, as some faced problems like poverty, unemployment, and loneliness in their new homes.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Education
The 1944 Education Act aimed to improve education access and outcomes in Britain. It raised the compulsory school leaving age to 15, providing all children a minimum of secondary education. At age 11, children took an exam that determined if they attended an academic-focused senior secondary school or trades-focused junior secondary school. However, the exam system was criticized for penalizing poorer students and determining children's futures too early. Labour also introduced new school buildings to replace those damaged in war and accommodate growing student populations, though secondary schools remained outdated in many areas.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Health
The NHS was established in 1948 by the 1945-51 British government to provide universal healthcare access, treating all medical problems freely at the point of use based on need rather than ability to pay. It aimed to eliminate disease by offering healthcare to all British citizens, over half of whom previously lacked medical coverage. While popular, the NHS also proved very expensive to run and faced initial shortages of hospital facilities and medical staff that limited treatment effectiveness and access.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Housing
The New Towns Act of 1946 aimed to tackle overcrowding and improve housing conditions in Britain by building new towns with homes. 14 new towns were established by 1951, moving people from city slums to new communities built in the countryside. However, these new towns initially lacked jobs and local facilities, requiring long commutes. Additionally, while the government set targets to build over 1 million new homes by 1951, housing shortages remained an issue as only around 800,000 new houses were completed. Prefabricated housing provided a temporary solution to the shortage but was meant to last only 10 years though many prefab homes stood for decades.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Poverty
The Family Allowances Act of 1946 provided weekly payments to mothers with two or more children to help families struggling financially, especially those where fathers had died in war. However, it did not help families with only one child and payments stopped at age 18. The National Insurance Act of 1946 built on previous acts to provide benefits like sickness, unemployment, old age pensions and other benefits by requiring weekly contributions from working-age people. However, the poorest still struggled to pay and the National Assistance Act of 1948 provided additional financial help for these individuals. Studies in York in 1936 and 1950 showed poverty levels falling from 36% to only 2% due to these welfare programs but benefits did not always keep up with inflation.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Unemployment
The Labour government nationalized several key industries like coal mining, steel production, electricity, and railways between 1946-1948. This was done to ensure these important industries were controlled by the country rather than private companies. Owners were compensated for the nationalized industries. Nationalization allowed the government to use tax money to fund unprofitable businesses and increase apprenticeships to reduce unemployment. However, nationalization was very costly and this high cost reduced funds available for other issues. Labour also introduced policies aimed at improving working conditions for workers through measures like paid holidays and secure jobs at docks. While some workers saw higher wages and better conditions, it may have discouraged companies from hiring more employees as it increased costs. Labour's home

Causes of the Cuban Missile Crisis – US foreign policy
- 1. The Cold War 1945-1989 US foreign policy Reasons for the Cuban Missile Crisis
- 2. US foreign policy In today’s class I am learning to: • Describe different US foreign policies in the 1960s • Analyse the extent to which these events helped cause the Cuban Missile Crisis
- 3. US foreign policy Throughout the Cold War, the USA was involved in a variety of foreign policy actions. These policies aimed to strengthen America, and stop the spread of Communism around the world.
- 4. US foreign policy In 1823, the American President James Monroe put forward a policy that became known as the Monroe Doctrine. This said that the USA would stop any European country trying to control countries in the American continent.
- 5. US foreign policy After the Cuban Revolution, the USA worried about a Soviet influence in Cuba. US Presidents – especially John F Kennedy – cited the Monroe Doctrine when they took action to prevent this Soviet involvement.
- 6. US foreign policy When Dwight Eisenhower was US President, he approved a plan to invade Cuba and remove Fidel Castro from power. John F Kennedy was reluctant to continue this plan but eventually agreed to do so.
- 7. US foreign policy 1400 Cuban exiles (now living in the USA) were given American military training and support. They were to return to Cuba and start a counter-revolution. They landed at a remote location called the Bay of Pigs.
- 8. US foreign policy The invasion was a disaster. American attempts to bomb Cuban air bases failed. Castro also knew in advance about the plans so was prepared. All of the exiles were killed or imprisoned.
- 9. US foreign policy The USA’s Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) were also involved in several failed attempts to assassinate Castro. It has been claimed these plans included unusual actions such as poison cigars and exploding sea-shells.
- 10. US foreign policy US attempts to remove Castro scared him, forcing him to get USSR protection. The Soviets may have believed that US embarrassment at the Bay of Pigs would mean they would not stop the Soviets putting weapons into Cuba.
- 11. US foreign policy The Bay of Pigs Crisis certainly had damaged Kennedy, perhaps making him more cautious. However it also showed that JFK was prepared to take military action. Khrushchev may not have wanted to provoke this.
- 12. US foreign policy After discovering that the USSR had placed nuclear weapons into Cuba, the USA wanted them removed. President Kennedy gave a national TV address where he updated Americans and demanded the Soviets take missiles out of Cuba.
- 13. US foreign policy The USA tried to stop more weapons going to the island, imposing a quarantine on Cuba (stopping Soviet ships going there). The US military urged the President to invade the island and remove the weapons.
- 14. US foreign policy Cuba was an independent country and entitled to have any military presence it wanted in its country. If the USA had accepted this and not tried to intervene, there would have been no crisis.
- 15. US foreign policy However the Soviets could be said to be to blame for the crisis. They knew the USA would not accept them, which is why they did it secretly. This meant the USA were correct to worry that the weapons might be used for attack.
- 16. US foreign policy The US had a policy of Containment to stop the spread of Communism. In Asia, the USA had sent soldiers into the Korean War to prevent this, and were also supporting the government of South Vietnam.
- 17. US foreign policy In Europe, the US strengthened had set up the military alliance of NATO in 1949. America now had military bases across Europe, including basing Jupiter nuclear missiles in Italy and Turkey too.
- 18. US foreign policy The Soviets felt threatened by American nuclear missiles in Italy and Turkey. Putting weapons in Cuba was an attempt by the USSR to place their weapons in a similar location, or force the USA to remove theirs.
- 19. US foreign policy The Soviets publicly wanted US Jupiter missiles removed from Turkey and Italy. However the Jupiter missiles were of limited technical value by the 1960s, so it is unlikely the USSR would have risked war because of them.
