During the cold war iron curtain received prominence, why though it describe the boundary that separate the Warsaw Pact countries from the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation NATO countries from the beginning to the end of the cold war (1945- 1991). It traced ideologically minded westerners that interpreted cold war as a social conflict that signifying that Moscow was trying to impose its own authoritarian system in a world that it meant to rule. It dismisses the popular nation that cold war was imperialistic ruling circles which America was trying to enslave all mankind under the yoke of Wall Street. The ideological perspective to the conflict makes the difference and the primary justification to the distrust by the two superpowers and their allies that created a reality to the ordinary man in the society beyond the operative objectives. The paper instead opines that cold war as a global social systemic conflict located in the typology of conflict or interest, which subsume economic interest, ideological incompatibility and misperception. The paper postulates that the antagonist behaviour in the Soviet Union, and US and her allies brought a second thought in the system, as a result d\u0450tente was a solution, and it is strategies relaxation of tension during the cold war associated with the diplomatic reactions between superpowers and later china. The paper x-rays the effects of d\u0450tente as cold war concept. The paper arrives at the conclusion that iron curtain became prominence as most states of the eastern bloc of the iron curtain developed their own international economic and military aliens. The method use was empirical by contacting textbooks and relevant journals. The paper concludes that iron curtain principles, d\u0450tente policy and approach to the cold war was the best methods of assessing the significance of cold war as social conflict.<\/p>\n<h2>Authors<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Effiong Ekpo (Ritman University, Ikot Ekpene, Akwa Ibom State)<\/li>\n<li>Udeoji Ebele Angela (National Open University of Nigeria)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Keywords<\/h2>\n<p>cold, war, d\u0450tente nuclear, weapons<\/p>\n<h2>References<\/h2>\n<p>References not available for this article.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article was originally published as: Cold War as Social Conflict, Iron Curtains and Application of D\u0450tente Policy as Cold&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[124],"tags":[3698,3699,3308,3667],"class_list":["post-6476","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-articles","tag-cold","tag-dtente-nuclear","tag-war","tag-weapons","wpcat-124-id"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
