There are a few different ways to think about the Cold War. It was usually described in terms of the conflict between two economic systems, capitalism vs. communism. It was also a conflict between nations, the USSR and its allies vs. the US and its allies. These two versions of events were equivalent, they merged together. So the Cold War was about who gets to control the world. Of course, once the Cold War ended, we quickly discovered that there was another player in the game. Now we have the war on terror.
