Global Leadership: U.S. and the Cold War

Tasks: 

  • Review terms: 
    • Cold War v. Hot War
    • Decolonization
    • Containment
  • Explain expectations for foreign policy project.  
    • The best projects will construct an argument about how each president is fighting the Cold War.  It is not enough to simply define the foreign policy goals and actions taken by each president.  
    • Consider analyzing the actions taken by the presidents through the lens of: 
      • economic (international aid) actions
      • diplomatic (developing alliances) actions
      • military actions (intervening with troops)
  • Use the rest of class time to research.
