Comparison of the 1938 Munich Crisis and 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis and the Role of Nuclear Arms Introduction In annals of the 20th century, the Munich crisis of 1938 and the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 are two of the more riveting examples of crisis diplomacy (Richardson 1994). Comparisons of the two cases yield a robust discourse on their similarities and differences. The two cases illustrate the complexity of international leadership through ‘summit diplomacy’ (Dobbs 2008; Faber 2008;

"The Flame of Peace still flickers on, awaiting the day when the world is rid of nuclear weapons." "President Barack Obama last April, former U.S. Secretary of State George P. Shultz warns of "a very dangerous moment" in history and calls for zero weapons."(A Nuke-Free World) The text indicates that people believe now is the time to get rid of nuclear weapons. Even Barack Obama, the US president, believes there should be zero weapons. People know the damage that can

regarding Kennedy’s decision. Khrushchev believed that these missiles were not only an offense to him, but to his country as well. However, the United States also possessed nuclear submarines which posed an even greater threat than the IRBM’s. The Soviet Union came to realize that they were extremely outmatched in the area of nuclear weapons and the decision by

Significant changes in history are often depicted through rebellions, which specifically comes from taking a stand for viewpoint based on the conditions it presents. Einstein, a world-renowned German physician, believed in pacifism and such non-violent acts, so during World War II his ideal for world peace was considered to be uncommon and rejected due to the majority seeking dominance and power through victory rather than equal standing. Though without having any power or impact towards U.S. powers

interference from the US would only cause more problems, or some might say that it would benefit the other country. I would argue that in the sense of WMD’s that it would be crucial that we get involved. Getting involved in something as drastic as nuclear, or in the Syrian case chemical, weapons then it would not only help out the other country, but would also show what we are

the house, machines, shadows of the family, and the dog as symbols to reinforce the idea that the technology humans have developed can lead to our eradication. Ray Bradbury wanted to explore this idea because he lived through the destruction of a nuclear war. He observed what had happened to the world in times of mass devastation and destruction. It was five years after World War Two when he wrote the short story, and the world was still recovering from the damages that had resulted. Bradbury showed

watched in class were all made between the years 1954 and 1964. World War II and The Cold War between The Soviet Union and the United States became the subject of many TV shows and movies of the time period. The paranoia and fear of communism and nuclear war was very real in the 1950’s/1960’s and it shaped the cultures of both the United States and the Soviet Union. You will be asked questions not only about the clips you will view but how they relate to World War II and The Cold War. You must use

but the worst kind of all the atomic war. One only has to think of the havoc this nuclear war would cause Capio mentioned in the article Airpower Journal (68). Just like when the United States Air Force dropped the Atomic bomb in Hiroshima from a B-29 bomber plane. Now some individuals may ask, what is the Atomic bomb? What kind of mayhem would this cause on a country? Why did the United States drop a powerful nuclear weapon in Hiroshima and Nagasaki and did they have

do; as it resulted in the death of 120,000 civilians. In my opinion the bombing of these two cities in Japan saved the number of casualties in the entire war from rising, helped make America become a superpower, and also introduced new methods of warfare. Is 120,000 deaths really that many? For it happening so quickly, yes. However, the world is filled with people. During World War 2, approximately 60 million people were killed, 120,000 compared to this is a small number. With fighting happening

As time progresses companies that work on AI have modified the original laws to better suit and apply to modern and developing technology. For example Google’s developers came up with five “practical research problems” that developers should focus on when attempting to create AI. The reasons are as follows: 1: “Avoid negative side effects.” - AI should not make things worse. 2: “Avoid reward hacking.” - AI should not
