In the first phase, its basic goal of the policy is to contain Soviet expansion and to finally bring about change in Soviet political system. In the second phase, the basic goal is to maintain American domination in the world as long as possible and to remake the world in American image. Phase 1 Basic goal of its policy is to contain Soviet expansion and to finally bring about change in Soviet political system. What America was like after WWⅡ Unscathed毫发无损and became the strongest country in the world. The sole possessor of atomic bombs. With over 70% of the gold reserve of the world in its coffers金库. Over 50% of industrial production of the world in its hand. The planners were visualizing a Pax Americana美国强权之下的世界和平. What the Soviet Union was like after WWⅡ Suffered a great losses in the war. Over 27 million people were killed in the war. Over 31 thousand factories were destroyed. Wanted to keep what it had got in the war, a sphere of influence agreed on by the United States and British at Yalta. By the end of WWII, the US and the Soviet Union fell apart and the Cold War began. US vs. Soviet Union Democracy vs. Communism Capitalism vs. Socialism NATO vs. the Warsaw Pact the Cold War the Truman Doctrine In 1948 president Truman put forward the Truman doctrine, which is generally regarded as the formal announcement of the implementation of containment. In order to contain communism, the US fought two was in Asia: the Korean War and the Vietnam War. The Containment Policy The US put into effect the containment policy in the late 1940s. By containment, the US meant that it would use whatever means, including military force, to prevent the Soviet Union from breaking out of its sphere of influence.. In Europe The crisis over Berlin in 1961 and the build of Berlin Wall. In Asia the containment policy was directed against the People’s Republic of China. The Korean War and Vietnam war. 1958-1961, the confrontations between NATO led by the US and the Warsaw Pact led by the SU took place in Berlin . Berlin Wall—Symbol of the Cold War The USSR built a wall that divided Berlin in order to stop East Germans from escaping to West Germany. This wall became a symbol of the Cold War. Both sides began to rally countries around them. The founding of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in 1949 and the Warsaw Pact in 1955 split the world into two military blocs with a large number of nonaligned countries in between . Arms race began. The American general killing women and children The Arms Race Atomic Bomb Hydrogen Bomb氢弹 Sputnik人造卫星 Nuclear Weapon Star Wars Project 1945 - USA drops 2 bombs on Japan In 1949, the Soviet Union detonated ['detəneit] 引 爆its first atomic device. The United States had its first test of the hydrogen bomb in 1952 and the Soviet Union followed in 1953. In 1957, the Soviet Union launched two sputniks into the orbit showing they had the vehicle to carry the bombs to the US. By the 1980s, the two countries had more than 50000 nuclear weapons that could kill the people in the world many times. 1952 – USA develops the hydrogen bomb During the 1950s, both stepped up its race in nuclear armaments and achieved parity in nuclear force—mutual assured deterrence. From 1982, Ronald Reagan initiated the Star Wars project, which intended to drag the SU into bankruptcy. The Cold War: a ‘balance of terror’ 1959 A brink of a nuclear war The Cuban Missile Crisis in 1959 Cuban revolutionaries led by Fidel Castro菲德尔·卡 斯特罗 The Bay of Pigs fiasco[fi'æskəu]惨败 The Soviet Union’s expansion in the region. President Kennedy’s blockade around Cuba. Cuban Missile Crisis ( 1962) 1959, Cuban revolutionaries led by Fidel Castro卡斯特罗had succeeded in overthrowing the Batista巴蒂斯塔regime and came to power. The Eisenhower Administration approved a CIA plan to train Cuban émigré 流亡者 and use them to fight against the Cuban revolutionary forces. When Kennedy came into office, the landing of the CIA-trained émigrés suffered a humiliating defeat. all of them were either killed or captured. This became known as the Bay of Pigs fiasco 猪 湾惨败. The SU, taking advantage of the situation to expand its influence in the region, introduced medium range and intermediate range missiles into Cuban. The US was not aware of this until the U-2 spy plane discovered the nearly- completed launching pads. President Kennedy decided to place a blockade around Cuba to prevent further shipment of weapons and demand the total removal of missiles in place in Cuba. strategy of contraction/The Nixon Doctrine战略性撤退战略 No longer planed to fight a ground war in Asia. A trip to China in 1972. Strategic Arms Limitation Talks Agreements in 1972. Ceasefire agreement with North Vietnam in 1973. Strategy of contraction The Nixon Doctrine made clear that the US no longer planned to fight a ground war in Asia but would provide nuclear protection to its allies in the region and give military and economic support to countries fighting against domestic communism. President Nixon visited China in 1972. The US and China normalized diplomatic relations in 1979. The strategic basis for the two countries to come together was the struggle against Soviet expansionism. This basis lasted until 1980s and early 1990s. Detaching China (1972) Mutual fear of Russia: “My enemies’ enemy is my friend” The US weakened by the Vietnam war Mao weakened by the revolt of Lin Biao and afraid of Russian attack Ping-pong diplomacy Gang of Two?

In 1989, the Berlin Wall fell. In 1991, the Soviet Union disintegrated, the color of the Eastern European countries changed. US won in the Desert Storm in Iraq. Soviet collapse Reagan: ‘victory through strength’ (the NATO members USSR lacked money to keep up with the USA) Western victory: ‘The End of History’ (Fukuyama) 1980-89: Afghanistan (The Soviet’s Vietnam) 1980: ‘Solidarity’, Poland’s first independent trade union 1989: Fall of the Berlin Wall 1991: Soviet Collapse PhaseⅡ the basic goal is to maintain American domination in the world as long as possible and to remake the world in American image. In the late1980s and early 1990s the world witnessed the most remarkable changes since the WWII. The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the change of the color of the Eastern European countries and the disintegration of the US at the end of 1991 radically changed the balance of power in the world. The removal of its chief rival on the international arena, the triumph in the Desert Storm in 1991 made the US the only super power of the world. American strategic planners again brought up the idea of a Pax Americana. The goal of the United States global strategy In order to maintain American leadership in the world, the United States will not allow any world power or regional power to emerge to challenge American global leadership or leadership in regions vital to American national interests.

The attack of Afghanistan 3. 3.the Bush Doctrine 4. The Gulf War II. 1. Unilateralism and Faith in Military Strength Pursued by George W. Bush in 2001 Any international agreement not in line with American national interests will be discarded. Reviewed评估policies and international agreement from the point of view of American national interests. Scrapped[skræp]废弃the Kyoto[ki'əutəu]京都议定书 agreement on environment and the Antiballistic[bə'listik]Missile Treaty signed in 1972 with the former Soviet Union. Such unilateral actions drew strong criticism from countries all over the world. the Sept.11 terrorist attack On Sept.11,2001, terrorists hijacked劫持 4 American passenger planes, 2 smashing into the World Trade Towers, 1 into the Pentagon, and the 4th one smashing into the fields in Pennsylvania. 3000 innocent lives were lost in the terrorist attacks. Therefore, Anti-terrorism then became a priority on the agenda of the majority of the countries all over the world. An anti-terrorism coalition. Focused on the al-Qaeda基地组织led by Bin Laden as the culprit主犯of the terrorist attacks. In October 2001, the United States launched an all round attack on Afghanistan and won a decisive victory in two months’ time. In the State of the Union message of 2002, President Bush surprised the world by naming Iraq, Iran and North Korea as Axis of Evil. American unilateralism again became evident. Strategy of Preemption/Bush Doctrine when the United States determines that a country which is repressive and hostile to the united states has acquired or produced weapons or mass destruction or has the potential to possess such weapons, the United States should use force to remove this threat to US security and should not wait till the danger becomes imminent or until the US is attacked. In an address delivered to the West Point graduates, President Bush, for the first time, put forward the strategy of preemption, which is formalized in the National Security Strategy issued in Sept. 2002. By preemption, the US means that when it determines that a country which is repressive and hostile to the US has acquired or produced weapons of mass destruction or has the potential to possess such weapons, the US should use force to remove this threat to US security and should not wait till the danger becomes imminent or until the Us is attacked. This is known as Bush Doctrine. Although this doctrine has been criticized for not being in accord with international law and the UN Charter, the Bush Administration adheres to the doctrine, putting it to the test in Gulf War II. On March 20, 2003, the US launched large- scale air attacks on Iraq without UN authorization. Gulf warⅡ /a test case for the new strategy On march 20,2003, the united states launched large scale air attacks on Iraq without United nation authorization. After heavy bombing, American and British ground forces moved in. Iraq was disarmed and Saddam regime政权was ended. The war has far-reaching effects on international relations and on the direction in which the world will develop. President Bush asserted that the war was to disarm Iraq, to end the Saddam regime and to put in a new and democratic government. According to certain analysis, the war on Iraq is only a battle in a wider and longer war to change the nature of the governments in Syria, Iran and Saudi Arabia. In other words, the Bush Administration wants to remake the Middle East according to its plan and its image. Conclusion American foreign policy since the second world war can be divided into two phases: The first between 1945 and 1991 The basic goal of the foreign policy of the united states is to contain soviet expansion and to finally bring about change in soviet political system. The second after 1991 The basic goal is to maintain American domination in the world as long as possible and to remake the world in American image. How American foreign policy is made Based on the US analysis of the world situation and on the determination of American core interests. How Americans view their basic national interests should always be the starting point in understanding American foreign policy. Goodbye
