Abstract

Tijekom Hladnog rata došlo je do niza posredničkih ratova, ponajviše na kontinentu Azije i Afrike. Posrednički ratovi tijekom Hladnog rata predstavljaju oružane sukobe u kojima su Sjedinjene Američke Države i Sovjetski Savez koristili druge zemlje, grupacije ili frakcije kao posrednike u svojoj borbi za globalni utjecaj i kontrolu. Cilj ovog istraživanja je analizirati ulogu posredničkih ratova u sukobu između SAD-a i Sovjetskog Saveza te njihov utjecaj na odnose između ove dvije supersile tijekom Hladnog rata. Istraživačko pitanje ovog rada glasi „Jesu li posrednički ratovi tijekom trajanja Hladnog rata bili oružani sukobi između dvaju suprotstavljenih vojno-političkih blokova i njihovih saveznika?“. Fokus ovog istraživanja usredotočuje se na oružane sukobe koji su vođeni putem posrednika i podržavani od strane SAD-a i Sovjetskog Saveza na kontinentima Azije i Afrike. Analizirat će se ključni sukobi kao što su Korejski rat, Vijetnamski rat, rat u Afganistanu, Angolski građanski rat i sukobi u Somaliji. Cilj ovoga rada je razumjeti ulogu posredničkih ratova u hladnoratovskom sukobu između SAD-a i Sovjetskog Saveza te analizirati njihov utjecaj na odnose između ove dvije supersile.

Abstract (english)

During the Cold War, a series of proxy wars took place, primarily in Asia and Africa. Proxy wars during the Cold War were armed conflicts in which the United States and the Soviet Union used other countries, groups, or factions as proxies in their struggle for global influence and control. The objective of this research is to analyze the role of proxy wars in the conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union and their impact on the relations between these two superpowers during the Cold War. The research question of this study is: "Were the proxy wars during the Cold War an armed conflict between the two opposing military-political blocs and their allies?" The focus of this research is on armed conflicts that were conducted through proxies and supported by the United States and the Soviet Union in Asia and Africa. Key conflicts such as the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Afghan War, the Angolan Civil War, and conflicts in Somalia will be analyzed. The aim of this study is to understand the role of proxy wars in the Cold War conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union and to analyze their impact on the relations between these two superpowers.
