Beginning as early as the mid-1940s or as late as the 1950s (depending on the assessment of various factors), the Cold War that dominated most of the second half of the 20th century had several causes. Perhaps above all, the two super-powers in the world after World War II -- the United States and the Soviet Union -- had diametrically opposed views of the right way to order and govern society. Indeed, these two 'empires' of a sort had entirely different understandings of 'the good life,' and each was intent on protecting its views against intrusion from the other.
