Document Summary

The cold war was important for two reasons; 1) the fear of moscow, soviet union, red army and the military threat possessed by communist su 2) came out of the 1930s the depression. The point for the american"s is how do we avoid that happening again. The american"s thought in particular that in order to get out of that and for it not to happen again is through trade and economic exchange. The point that the american"s were concerned about was that if communism dominated large portions of the world, than those portions of the world would be cut off from american trade. It would then retrain the american economy for growing their economy. For moscow that idea was that you would have a set of buffer states between russia and the european states. For the american"s it was a problem because those are the countries that the american"s wanted to trade with.
