Key Concepts: 8.1: The United States responded to an uncertain and unstable postwar world by asserting and attempting to defend a position of global leadership, with far-reaching domestic and international consequences. 8.2: Liberalism, based on anticommunism abroad and a firm belief in the efficacy of governmental and especially, federal power to achieve social goals at home, reached it apex in the mid-1960s and generated a variety of political and cultural responses. 8.3: Postwar economic, demographic and technological changes had far-reaching impacts on American society, politics, and the environment.
