Significado
Historical term for political tension.
Contexto cultural
Finland's role in the Cold War was defined by the 1948 YYA Treaty with the Soviet Union, which forced a policy of 'neutrality' that leaned East. In the US, the Cold War is often remembered as a struggle for 'freedom' against 'communism', characterized by the Red Scare. Germany was the literal front line, divided into East (DDR) and West (BRD) by the Berlin Wall. In Russia, the era is often viewed through the lens of being a global superpower and the eventual 'catastrophe' of the USSR's collapse.
