Causes of the Cold War

The Soviet Union wanted to spread its ideology of communism worldwide, which alarmed the Americans who followed democracy.

The acquisition of atomic weapons by America caused fear in the Soviets.

Both countries feared an attack from each other.

The Soviet Union’s action of taking control over Eastern Europe was a major factor for US suspicions.

The US President had a personal dislike of the Soviet leader Josef Stalin.

America was annoyed by the Soviet Union’s actions in the part of Germany it had occupied.

The Soviets feared that America would use Western Europe as a base to attack it. (Buzzle.com, 2010)

Underlying Causes

Ideological: The United States and the Soviet Union represented two opposing systems of government. In the United States, the government was elected by free elections unlike the Soviet Union. The people could form political parties to voice their political opinions.

(ii) Economic: The United States wanted to encourage free trade throughout the world. The Soviet Union wanted to shield off her own sphere from international commerce. These differences led to much ill feeling between the United States and the Soviet Union.
