Vocabulary Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) - A doctrine of military strategy in which full-scale use of nuclear weapons by opposing sides would result in the destruction of both parties.
Quote "Our government has placed us at a disadvantage in the arms race." - John F. Kennedy
Highlight The concept of the "Missile Gap," though later proven false, significantly influenced American military spending and public perception of Soviet capabilities.
The 1960s saw a shift from Massive Retaliation to Flexible Response under Kennedy and Johnson. This period was marked by significant involvement in Vietnam and the implementation of the Domino Theory.
Definition The Domino Theory suggested that if one country fell to communism, neighboring states would follow in a domino effect.
Highlight The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution and Vietnam War escalation provided the president with unprecedented war powers, effectively serving as a "blank check" for military action.
Example At its peak in 1968, American troop presence in Vietnam reached 500,000, leading to widespread domestic protests.
The 1970s marked a significant shift in Cold War strategy with the implementation of détente under Nixon, focusing on reducing tensions with communist nations.
Vocabulary Détente - A period of reduced tension and improved relations between the United States and Soviet Union.
Highlight The Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) represented a major effort to reduce nuclear arsenals and decrease Cold War tensions.
The late 1980s and early 1990s witnessed the dramatic collapse of communist regimes across Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union.
Highlight The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 symbolized the end of communist control in Eastern Europe.
Example The dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 resulted in the independence of numerous nations and the establishment of democratic governments.
Nixon's administration pursued a policy of "Peace With Honor" through Vietnamization and various military operations.
Definition Vietnamization involved gradually withdrawing American troops while providing support to South Vietnam.
Example Operation Rolling Thunder and Operation Linebacker represented major bombing campaigns.
The 1960s represented the peak of American liberalism, characterized by expanded government involvement and social welfare programs.
Highlight Issues like school integration and "forced busing" became significant political controversies.
Vocabulary "White flight" referred to the mass exodus of white residents from urban areas to suburbs.
The 1970s saw the rise of organized conservative movements and interest groups.
Quote "And so tonight to you, the great silent majority of my fellow Americans-I ask for your support." - Nixon, 1969
Example The Eagle Forum and Moral Majority emerged as influential conservative organizations.
Reagan's administration introduced "Supply Side" economics, emphasizing tax cuts and reduced government intervention.
Definition Supply Side Economics proposed that reducing taxes would stimulate economic growth and ultimately increase government revenue.

Definition The First Red Scare (1919-1921) was a period of intense anti-communist sentiment and fear of radical political change in the United States.
Example The Palmer Raids resulted in the deportation of suspected radical immigrants, particularly those from Eastern Europe.
