How did the iron curtain develop as communism spread around the world?
I. Domino Theory
A. domino theory = the spread of communism around the world
B. Communism spreads for two reasons:
1. easy to start a communist government
2. Communism is popular because it promises equality
C. Communism and Democracy are extremely different
1. Communism =
dictatorship, government control, command economy (Government makes decisions)
2. Democracy =
elect leaders, natural rights, free speech, free press, free religion, capitalism (Money makes decisions)
D. Iron Curtain
1. iron curtain = separation between communist and democratic places
2. As communism spreads, it is important to divide and separate communist and democratic ideas because they are so different and VERY different things will happen in these places.
