Why was World War II a watershed moment in the international landscape?

After World War II, the P5-based international order was established, and it is no different now.

The cruelty of modern warfare has made human society and civilization deeply reflect on the catastrophic nature it brings.

With the war, new cultures such as nationalism and nationalism began to gradually develop and grow, and how to restrain the plundering of past forms of war became the direction of social value norms, and thus gave birth to the birth of the United Nations, the core mechanism of the establishment of the United Nations, that is, the establishment of diplomatic mediation channels for effective consultation between major powers, to avoid the possibility of World War III.

After World War II, the world changed a lot. That's it, the pattern of communist states led by the Soviet Union. The other is the pattern of Western capitalist countries led by the United States. These are the two major world patterns. It was formed after World War II.

After the end of World War II, the world entered a bipolar pattern of hegemony between the United States and the Soviet Union.

The bipolar pattern is manifested in the military confrontation between NATO and the Warsaw Pact led by the United States and the Soviet Union, the competition for the third world, the mutual economic embargo and blockade, the frenzied competition in armaments, the vain attempt to gain superiority over the opponent, and the ideological mutual attack.

Generally speaking, it is the situation in which the two major blocs, the United States and the Soviet Union, occupy an absolutely dominant position in the world power structure and are hostile to and confronted each other, but cannot defeat their opponents.

After World War II, the traditional Eurocentric pattern was replaced by a bipolar pattern between the United States and the Soviet Union. By the late 80s and early 90s, with the drastic changes in Eastern Europe and the collapse of the Soviet Union, the bipolar pattern came to an end, and the world was developing in the direction of multipolarity.

1. The emergence of a bipolar pattern: The United States pursues a hegemonic policy: After World War II, the United States became the hegemon of the capitalist world.

As its power grows, the United States attempts to further dominate the world. The United States pursued a "cold war" policy toward the Soviet Union and other socialists, and even directly launched local wars in Asia, creating a situation of confrontation between the capitalist camp and the socialist camp.

The U.S.-Soviet struggle for hegemony: After World War II, the Soviet Union became the only political and military power that could compete with the United States. After the 50s, the hegemonism of the Soviet Union expanded day by day, and the United States and the Soviet Union fought fiercely for world hegemony.

The contradictions between the United States and the Soviet Union have become the focus of contradictions in the world and seriously threaten world peace.

2. The end of the bipolar pattern: Due to the serious economic and political crisis, in the late 80s and early 90s of the 20th century, the drastic changes in Eastern Europe and the disintegration of the Soviet Union brought the bipolar pattern to an end.

3. The development of multipolarization in the world today: After the 70s of the 20 th century, the European Community, Japan, and the United States formed a three-legged situation, and the world economy became multipolar. With the drastic changes in Eastern Europe, the disintegration of the Soviet Union, and the end of the bipolar pattern between the United States and the Soviet Union, a situation of "one superpower and many powers" has emerged in the world today, and it is developing in the direction of multipolarization.

After the Second World War, Germany and Japan became defeated countries and their international status seriously declined! The old capitalist countries of Britain and France are seriously weakened! The center of the world shifted to the Americas region, and the United States and the USSR became superpowers with the power to dominate the world!

The United States became a political and economic power among capitalist countries, and the Soviet Union became a political and military power in the socialist camp, and the Cold War was used as a prelude.

The struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union for hegemony, the confrontation between socialism and capitalism.

In 1949 "NATO" and.

Copied 1955 "Hua.

The establishment of the "Raid Covenant" organization finally formed a bipolar pattern. The two sides waged a 30-year struggle for hegemony. In today's world.

The DAO pattern has developed from bipolar to "one superpower and many powers", one super is the United States, and many strong refers to Japan, the European Union, China, Russia and other countries and national alliances.

After World War II, the United States established NATO, and then the Soviet Union established the Warsaw Pact, marking the formation of a bipolar pattern.

Both the United States and the Soviet Union wanted to be the boss, but they did not cause a major war on an international scale.

Just some friction. ** Contests between them. Better than whoever is more. Scaring each other and not fooling each other.

It is called the Cold War.
