Introduction:
The Cold War is a rivalry between the capitalist bloc led by the US and the communist bloc dominated by the USSR from 1945 to 1991, when the USSR collapsed. This confrontation and the ideological conflict have brought about multifarious impacts on numerous states and the world order. Not only does the ‘world order’ refer to the distribution of power among various state actors, but it also denotes the social norms in the international community. This thesis exposits communism has a great influence on the world order because it is the origins of the Cold War, which consolidates the US’s hegemony in the unipolar system created, whereas catalyzing the transnational cooperation among states. One may, therefore, conclude that further transnational cooperation alongside the delineation of the unipolar world are attributed to communism.

This theory suggests that the transformation of human history is motivated by series of class struggles until communism is established after the bourgeoisies are overthrown by the proletariats. After all, the society would become classless with total equality in terms of socio-economic status since the central government ruled by the proletariats would distributed equivalently all resources to the people. Russia adopted this ideology after the Russian Revolution after 1917 as well. Suffering from commodities shortage due to the WWI, a number of socialists, workers and soldiers’ spouses staged demonstrations to exhale their discontent and anger toward the aristocrats’ ineptitude and privileges.
