The Cold War was a geopolitical chess match between the United States, the Soviet Union, and both parties’ allies in which the major power players sought to project their respective ideologies across the globe in the wake of colonialism’s collapse following World War Two. The period occurred between 1947, the year of the Truman Doctrine, and 1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed.

As the defense analysts James Jay Carafano and Paul Rosenzweig have observed, Eisenhower built his Cold War foreign policy, largely based on the policy of containment, on four pillars:

• Providing security through “a strong mix of both offensive and defensive means.”Maintaining a robust economy.
• Preserving a civil society that would “give the nation the will to persevere during the difficult days of a long war.”
• Winning the struggle of ideas against “a corrupt vacuous ideology” destined to fail its people.
