metadata.value: No research in the colonial system issues during the Cold War would be complete without
  studying the press of the participating parties. In order to give a detailed analysis of the international
  relationships in terms of the global transformations from an American point of view,
  the article explores relevant newspaper articles published after the World War II. It shows
  changes concerning priority schemes as viewed in American social discourse during 1945.
  Roosevelt’s plan for the dismantling of the colonial empires was gradually replaced with less
  radical plans, which presupposed using the colonial experience for foreign policy of the USA.
  The materials of the American press of 1945 dedicated to the search for the most effective
  strategy of building relations with both colonial empires and dependent territories demonstrate,
  among other things, a steady interest of American mass media in negative and positive
  experience of colonial policy. Thus, in the American public discourse of late 1945 emerged
  several new approaches towards evaluation of the prospects of the colonial system. The first
  approach: retention of all colonial empires, especially in the key points of the after-war world
  (Middle East, Indochina, Northern Africa). The second approach: retention of the British colonial
  empire capable of controlling (with the aid from the USA) the Mediterranean area, the
  Middle East, and the South-Eastern Asia; which would address two tasks, namely provision
  of valuable raw materials for the American economy, and control over rebels and national
  liberation forces. The third approach: replacement of colonial empires with American military
  presence in order to solve the same problems.
