This course will give you comprehensive understanding of all the key strategies, ideas and doctrines of the Cold War. What is perhaps even more important, the content of this course has become extremely relevant today, in the context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and how it affected relations between Russia and the West.
The course is ideal for beginners and more advanced students alike. No prior university education is needed. It will give you confidence to speak about both the geopolitics of the Cold War AND how those ideas from 1945-1990 have become relevant again. Your understanding of the current conflict with Russia will become much more grounded in history and the study of geopolitics.
