About this listen
In this episode I explore the factors that contributed to the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War. I will discuss the role colonialism played in the Yugoslavian and Rwandan genocides. Finally, I will discuss the origins of the continuing turmoil in the Middle East/Western Asia
- Why did the Cold War end?
- What were glasnost and perestroika, and how might they have contributed to the collapse of the Soviet Union?
- In what way were the genocides in Yugoslavia and Rwanda the product of imperialism?
- Why has ethnic and religious tension in the Middle East persisted in the years since the end of the Cold War?
- What is the cause of anti-American Islamic extremist violence? How has the US responded to this violence, and how has this affected America’s position in the world?
