Understanding how this long-standing conflict was peacefully resolved can give us insight into how to conclude other seemingly intractable conflicts. Triumphalists believe that President Ronald Reagan "won" the Cold War by building up US military power and threatening the USSR. His hard-line policies forced Moscow to reduce its arsenal, adopt democratic reforms, withdraw from its war in Afghanistan, and ultimately collapse. Triumphalists assert that contemporary leaders should follow Reagan's example bycompelling adversaries into submission. However, triumphalism is a myth, a series of falsehoods about Reagan's intentions, his policies, and the impact his administration had on the USSR.Studies in conflict, diplomacy, and peace.Kentucky scholarship online.Cold WarUnited StatesForeign relationsSoviet UnionSoviet UnionForeign relationsUnited StatesUnited StatesForeign relations1981-1989United StatesPolitics and government1981-1989Cold War.973.927092Fischer Beth A.1964-686908StDuBDSStDuBDSBOOK9910817404303321The myth of triumphalism3941669UNINA
