The End of the Cold War

Indeed, as American commodities overflowed the world market in the days after World War II, by cultivating the media, expanding trade, and actively developing information technology, the American culture now lies on every continent It is permeating. The essence of imperialism in the modern world has undergone tremendous change; it has expanded from clear military forces to economic, political, cultural and linguistic aspects (Haque, 2011). Many anti-globalization scholars believe that the power of modern imperialism has become a symbolic rule that is promoted by the global telecommunications system and the spread of the Western-dominated television (Movius, 2010).

What we see is not only the end of the Cold War, but also the end of a period of war's history, the end of history. The end of the evolution of human thought and the generalization of Western liberal democracy as the ultimate form of human government. The position of Fukuyama is contradictory to the position of Karl Marx and Karl Marx predicted that communism would replace capitalism. Fukuyama himself also matches to Marx to a certain extent, but through Alexander Kohe, it closely agrees with German philosopher George Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. Cojeve believes that historical progress should lead to the establishment of the "universal and homogeneous" nation that is most likely to be incorporated into elements of liberal democracy and social democracy, but such countries And its citizens) must have the "post political" nature. This makes this comparison inappropriate, capitalist 'victory' is irrevocable.

The enthusiastic introduction of Beatrice Heuser points out that this issue provides "review of the end of the Cold War." Cold war or general cold war or its specific aspects I am disappointed that between 1985 and 1991 I did not see the first historical work directly related to the above important issues. A wonderful article, but the reviewer's job is not to write what you want to see, but to evaluate what you show. Since there is not enough space to discuss each article (the problem is the length of the book), I comment on the article I found the most interesting and / or controversial.
