No, Communism died simply because it was an unstable system. Under Communism, everyone was poor and wouldn't work much. The Soviet Union also never had a good leader.
However, I did hear that under Communism, it didn't allow for a powerful military. Not sure whether it's true or not though...
Communism: a classless stateless moneyless society based on production for use. It clearly did not exist in Eastern Europe. The USSR was state capitalist.
Because the two superpowers had opposing ideologies - the Soviet Union believed in Communism and the worldwide conversion to this belief, the US believe in democracy/capitalism and the freedom of nations and their peoples. As communism spread the US believed it was their fundamental responsibility to prevent this. It spread to a global conflict as other nations chose to support either the US or Soviet Union.
Francisco Franco was cautious because he could not start the right-wing rebellion of 1936 in Spain. He would try to avoid any direct military or diplomatic promises to the war effort.
It cost less to run thana colony did, and did not require a large comitment of military support
because they was the best
when Truman became president in 1945,he signed a doctrine.in it was an excerpt from the decleration of independence,as it is stated,''we hold these truths to be self-evident[see below to find its definition],and that among them are the pursuit of life,the pursuit of liberty,and the pursuit of hapiness.''and Truman said to Stalin,''may i make a law in my doctrine that the war[world war 2]shall end.''and Stalin said to him,''dieu[french],my friend and master,the creator agrees for you to write the law in it,as you are called a communist by the soviets and are willing to say that to me.go on.make a law,and i will accept the law that you write down.yes,yes,write it,because the creator[Stalin]of communism allows you to do that.''and Truman did so.on may 8,1945,the war ended.it was eight days after Hitler and his wife,Eva brun,had killed themselves.and Truman brought his doctrine to Stalin,but the war had alredy ended.it was too late.self-evident means,''to keep everything in one's power.''
The policy of containment, or stopping the spread of Communism, caused America to help South Korea because it was being invaded by North Korea, which was communist
To contain the expansion of Communism, promote Democracy, To strengthen and aide anti-communist elements and Military objectives. They were to train, equip, and support anti-communist elements
Yes. The United States attempted to stop the USSR from spreading communism by supplying armaments, financing, and military support to countries on the verge of falling into a communistic government. The Korean Police Action and Vietnamese Conflict were attempts at stopping communism from overtaking the countries of Korea and Vietnam. The United States aided Afghanistan in the ten year war against Russia, which was an effort in keeping communism out of the Middle East.
because they were forced by their leader HAHAHAHAHA
The US would support Greece and Turkey with financial and military aid in order to protect them from falling to communism, due to the fact that their economies were failing and on the brink of collapse.
The Truman Doctrine promised support to any nation battling communism.
Nope, capitalism.
Northern support for Reconstruction had faded because the cost of military operations in the South worried many people.
Truman Doctrine
Increase support for communism.
Containment
There is nothing 'wrong' with Communism. The thing is that most Westerners get the misconception that Communism is bad. This is because during the Cold War in an effort to get support against the USSR and Communism the US used wildly incorrect propaganda which made most people think Communism=Tyranny, which isn't the case. Take it from me, I lived in the Soviet Union, visited Cuba and China, and I wasn't oppressed, nor did I ever see anyone around me be a victim of 'tyranny'. Its all propaganda. Basically this..... There have been tyrants in capitalism. South American countries and South Eastern Asian countries (who are still all LECDs), Africa and Middle East have non-democratic capitalism.
