During the Cold War, the deterrent value of nuclear war and the “mutually assured destruction” syndrome limited or contained wars that might have otherwise expanded in scope or seriousness. It must also be considered that those wars tended to heighten tensions between the superpowers and disproportionately impact those living on soil being vied for by Soviet and American forces.
