Nuclear war was largely avoided during the Cold War through a combination of diplomacy, deterrence strategies, and communication channels. Key events such as the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 highlighted the need for clear communication and the establishment of direct lines between the U.S. and Soviet leaders, which led to agreements like the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. The doctrine of Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD) also played a crucial role, as both superpowers recognized that a nuclear conflict would result in catastrophic consequences for both sides, thereby incentivizing restraint. Additionally, arms control agreements helped to limit the proliferation and deployment of nuclear weapons.
