Thesis
Where were the proxy wars? Who won them and why? How did the Cold War end?The Cold War, the struggle for economic and political dominance between USSR and USA, resulted in proxy wars in the developing world. These contests, USSR expenditures, and overextension of USSR power, led to the ultimate ‘triumph’ of the USA capitalist system.
