Culture Of Control

Culture of control is something that can make things go smoothly or make things go not as smoothly. Usually good cultures of control are successful while worse cultures of control are not as successful. With that said, the objective at hand is to describe both the United States and Soviet Union’s culture of control used on their scientists, people and allies and explain which was more effective and why. The paper will start off by explaining the two different countries cultures of control. This will include the topics of propaganda, treatment of people and workers, as well as how each country went about dealing with their “Germany”. After that, the paper will explain why the United States had a better culture of control, and why the Soviet
