I know wikipedia isnt a reliable source of info but its a start https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_war

OpenStudy (usernamenottaken):

OH! they mean the Cold War. The cold war was a proxy war.

OpenStudy (usernamenottaken):

A surrogate intervention is when major political parties interact with each other indirectly. It can also be refer to as a proxy war, which can be defined as: "a war instigated by a major power that does not itself become involved."

OpenStudy (usernamenottaken):

Another way to put it: "A proxy war is two opposing countries avoiding direct war, and instead supporting combatants that serve their interests. In some occasions, one country is a direct combatant whilst the other supporting its enemy"

OpenStudy (usernamenottaken):

Hope it helped. Thats the best i can do.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

believe that the United States used containment as a possible surrogate intervention into the Cold War as a way to prevent communism and to spread democracy. Their fear was that Stalin would become successful in gaining control over certain parts of the world, so, of course the US wanted to prevent that. They fed this fear to the citizens, through news media and politicians, that there was a possibility, if communism was not eradicated, that it could take away their natural born freedom in America. There is also another chance that the policy of containment, was used as a gateway for America to try to establish democracy throughout the world, which would, in return, give America the ultimate power.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can that be correct? @UsernameNotTaken

OpenStudy (usernamenottaken):

Yeah, that could work. Its perfect.
