8 Khrushchev Space race Cuba Cold war
9 "The Spirit of Great Lenin and His Victorious Banner inspires us during this Great Patriotic War" (Joseph Stalin)
10 challenges 1956: Hungary 1968: Czechoslovakia 1980: Poland 1989: disintegration
11 How did the SOVIET UNION (Russia) replicate the past? Authoritarian Centralization of power Emphasized territorial expansion Cultural isolation from the west Domination of Russians over other ethnics
12 China, Japan, and the Pacific Rim in the 20 th Century
13 Qing to Republic Mid-19th century flooding and other economic issues make peasants unhappy Increased social unrest Social and economic systems could not cope with the changes of increased population Taiping Rebellion An attempt to overthrow Qing government Attempt thwarted but secret societies working towards overthrowing continued
14 Qing to Republic (cont d) End of 19 th century Children of scholar-gentry and compradors (wealthy merchants) work towards overthrowing Qing Dynasty 1905 Civil Service exams end Signified the end of the strong Confucian influence of society Today, some influence remains Sun Yat-sen led failed attempts at toppling the empire Successful in 1911
15 The Republic is Established Republic of China established in 1912 Sun Yat-Sen was the first leader (president) Headed the Kuomintang(KMT) to govern over the Chinese Republic Early years were quite turbulent
16 Republic of China (cont d) 1925 Chiang Kai-shek controlled the KMT after Sun Yat- Sen s death With the support of the Soviet Union, he drove out rival warlords Once the KMT regained control, Chiang purged the country of communists Actually wanted to eliminate them Sino-Japanese War defeated by the Japanese but they benefited from Japan s loss in WWII Seen as a solid country and an ally to the West against communism
17 Post World War II China Chinese Civil War KMT vs Communist Party of China Communist Party of China emerges victoriously led by Mao Zedong People s Republic of China Established October 1, 1949 as a communist state Nationalists (KMT and Chiang Kai-Shek) forced out of China and move to Taiwan
18 Mao s Push for the Future Work towards developing the infrastructure of the country Strengthen industry, healthcare, and education to raise living standard The Great Leap Forward Collectivization
19 The Great Leap Forward Communes ppl working together to form selfsufficent economic units with light industry Collectivization agricultural unit requiring large amounts of peasants working together not for a wage but for a share of the farms output. Result? Initially, the economy grew drastically(1958) but by 1961, it had collapsed Poor economic planning led to DISASTER!! Statistics inflated and falsified to give impression that it was successful Estimated that 20 million people died (many from starvation)
20 The Cultural Revolution Mao s attempt to purge the country of counterrevolutionaries and spread communist and Marxist ideology 1968 Mao himself was promoted and achieved a god-like status He became the source of everything that was provided Begins to lose control
21 Mao s problems Purges government of officials that give him problems and sends them to labor camps Top officials try to stage a coup and assassinate Mao( Unsuccessful) 1976 Mao dies 1978 Deng Xiaoping takes charge Moved more towards a Mixed economy but still communist and oppressive of rival groups
22 Post World War II Japan Adopts a new constitution and a constitutional monarchy Aggressive industrialization Large emphasis on education Economy stresses working together of all parties involved (workers and companies) and high job security By 1980s, one of the top economies in the world Elements of society in Japan are still highly traditional
23 Pacific Rim Economic Commonalties Team emphasis allows the ability for fast economic growth Loyalty vs. individualism Confucian shapes moral code Many countries after initial success have had to move to a western model Thailand and Indonesia to counter slow or declining economies 4 Asian Tigers Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea, Hong Kong
24 The Cold War US vs Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
25 Define Cold War The strategic and political struggle that developed after WWII between the United States and it s Western European allies and the Soviet Union and Eastern European allies Democracy vs. Communism
26 Cold War Characterisitcs A political, strategic and ideological struggle between the US and the USSR that spread throughout the world-europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America. It was a struggle that contained everything short of war. Each side denied the others right to exist. Each side used propaganda against the other.
27 Causes of the Cold War Different political systems -US is based on democracy, capitalism and freedom -USSR is based on dictatorship, communism and control Both thought their system was better and distrusted the others intentions Stalin despised capitalism
28 Causes of Cold War Stalin breaking his promise to allow free elections at the Yalta Conference American fear of a communist attack(red Scare) and USSR s fear of a US attack USSR s fear of the atomic bomb USSR s actions in their German zone USSR s goal to spread communism around the world This feeling of suspicion lead to mutual distrust and this did a great deal to deepen the Cold War
29 Post WWII/Cold War Goals for: US Wanted to promote open markets for US goods to prevent another depression Promote democracy throughout the world, especially in Asia and Africa Stop the spread of communism USSR Wanted to create greater security for itself -lost millions in WWII and Stalinist purges -feared a strong Germany Establish defensible borders Encourage friendly governments on it s borders Spread communism
30 Winston Churchill Iron Curtain Speech From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an iron curtain has descended across the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe. Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and Sofia, all these famous cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the Soviet sphere, and all are subject in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence but to a very high and, in some cases, increasing measure of control from Moscow. Athens alone -- Greece with its immortal glories -- is free to decide its future at an election under British, American and French observation. The Russian-dominated Polish Government has been encouraged to make enormous and wrongful inroads upon Germany, and mass expulsions of millions of Germans on a scale grievous and undreamed-of are now taking place. The Communist parties, which were very small in all these Eastern States of Europe, have been raised to pre-eminence and power far beyond their numbers and are seeking everywhere to obtain totalitarian control. Police governments are
31 Truman Doctrine In 1947 the British were helping the Greek government fight against communist guerrillas. They appealed to America for aid, and the response was the Truman Doctrine. America promised it would support free countries to help fight communism. Greece received large amounts of arms and supplies, and by 1949 had defeated the communists. The Truman Doctrine was significant because it showed that America, the most powerful western country, was prepared to resist the spread of communism throughout the world.
32 Marshall Plan In 1947, US Secretary of State Marshall announced the Marshall Plan. This was a massive economic aid plan for Europe to help it recover from the damage caused by the war. There were two motives for this: Helping Europe to recover economically would provide markets for American goods, so benefiting American industry. A prosperous Europe would be better able to resist the spread of communism. This was probably the main motive.
33 The Berlin Crisis- (June 1948-May 1949)
34 In 1948, the three western controlled zones of Germany's(US,France, UK) were united, and grew in prosperity due to Marshal Aid. The west wanted the east to rejoin, but Stalin feared it would hurt Soviet security. In June 1948, Stalin decided to try to gain control of West Berlin which was deep inside the eastern sector. He cut road, rail and canal links with West Berlin, hoping to starve it into submission. The west responded by airlifting in the necessary supplies to allow west Berlin to survive. In May 1949, Russia admitted defeat and lifted the blockade.
35 NATO aka the We Hate Communism Club In 1949 the western nations formed the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to coordinate their defense against Russia. It consisted of: -America, Canada, Britain, France, Holland, Belgium Luxembourg, Portugal, Denmark, Norway and Italy Still around today
36 East and West Germany
