Clash of civilization by Samuel Huntington is believed to be containing facts about the political scene during the cold war era and stated or hypothesized that there is a new order prior to the end of the cold war. Societies and civilizations were divided by ideological differences. Political struggle between the ideologies of democracy and communism fueled Huntington’s arguments within the book. To begin his argument, Huntington classified civilization as the broadest cultural entity he also stated

In his remarkable “Berlin Wall Speech”, Ronald Reagan persuasively applies arguments based on integrity to demonstrate his credibility as a winner of democracy, assertions based on rationale to justify his invocation, and pleas to emotion to strengthen his association to the ethics of Berliners and to liberty, in his ple on Gorbachev to demolish the “Berlin Wall”, advance harmony, and encourage freedom in Berlin. The inauguration of Ronald Reagan’s speech is typified by his appeals to the social

Soviets launched two dogs on Sputnik 5 and successfully returned them to Earth. Strelka and Belka were the first cosmonauts to safely return home from space. In 1961, the manned era of space exploration began. On April 12, 1961, the Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first human to travel in space. He was launched atop a Vostok 1 with the call sign “Cedar” with a flight time

On September 12, 1962, at Rice University in Houston Texas, John F. Kennedy gave a powerful speech to garner support for the funding of the space race for the USA. He stated the importance of putting a man on the moon before the end of the decade in its efforts against the Soviet Union and the expectation was met in 1969 by the astronaut Neil Armstrong. His speech forged a new path that the US was heading and inherently started the revolution of the exploration of outer space. Kennedy’s “Moon Speech”

greatest effect on Soviet culture’s post-Great Patriotic war is Yuri Gagarin. The young man who on April 12, 1961 became the first man in space and to circle the Earth in the Vostok rocket. And when he returned to earth “was born twice, there was his original, physical birth in 1934, and his second birth as a public figure in 1961.” The event is also a prime example of how technology has played a crucial role in international relations. Yuri Gagarin is deemed as a hero and nation icon still in the Russia

Polished curves devoid of sharp edges plunge above the head as bold royal blue cloaks the neck, and extend downward into a miniskirt. Black tightly blankets most every extremity. This is not the ensemble worn by astronauts’ millennia from now. Nor is it a scene from a futuristic movie set. Rather, a 1967 creation by famed French designer Pierre Cardin worn by Raquel Welch. While it may seem that futuristic fashion is a runway look better left in the past, modern lines and forward thinking prove

“This is one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” - Neil Armstrong, Apollo 11 July 20th, 1969. Apollo 11 landed on uninhabited land. Over 200,000 miles away humans walked on the moon after many attempts and failures. Sure, the United States won the overall Space Race that it had going with the USSR. But how close was the USSR to succeeding? The two most technologically advanced civilizations in the history of Earth up to that point in time had a goal, and both countries were ruthless

You probably wanted to be an astronaut when you were a kid but I bet Yuri Gagarin wasn't expecting to be the first one. Percy Jackson from the lighting thief is a demigod son of Poseidon. went to the underworld to retrieve Zeus's lightning bolt so there wouldn't be a world war three.Both Yuri Gagarin and Percy Jackson both went to unexplored areas and return home alive and well (maybe not) Yuri Gagarin is a hero because he was the first human being to enter space. This makes him a hero because he

Did Ronald Reagan ‘win’ the cold war? Ronald Wilson Reagan was the 40th president of the United States in 1862, he passed away on the fifth of June with the age of ninety three, people and some historians believe that Ronald Reagan won the cold war, and because a piece of the Berlin wall that was placed in the presidential library of Reagan represented and still represents the historical meaning of him winning the cold war

Despite his popularity in the US as “The Man Who Beat Communism”, Reagan’s presidency during the 1980s was only a sidekick to Gorbachev in the efforts to end the Cold War. Reagan’s actions against the USSR did not scare the nation into reforms, but Gorbachev’s impact in the Cold War, reforming the Soviet Union and oversight of communism’s peaceful transition into democracy during the late 80s overshadows Reagan’s seemingly token actions, portraying clearly that the only man which can hold the title

The aim of this investigation is to prove whether or not John Paul II played an important role in the fall of the Communist Regime in Poland which in turn influenced the collapse of the Soviet Empire. This subject is a highly controversial one as some historians believe the Pope was elected at the “right” time and that he had no influence over communist leaders nor over the collapse of the Soviet satellite. In order to prove John Paul II played an important role one has to analyze the first Papal
