强调美国国内政治经济制度的必要性或两极化要求的冷战理论，被朝鲜战争强烈影响国际历史并确实带来了我们与冷战有关的大多数特征的论点所削弱。如果没有朝鲜，美国的政策就会大不相同，而且没有任何事件可以取代战争。国际或美国国内体系可能"需要"高额国防预算、美国承诺的全球化和北约的军事化，但这些模式只是在朝鲜战争之后才出现的。因此，用这种要求来解释冷战是不够的。
Theories of the cold war that stress the imperatives of the American domestic politico-economic system or the requirements of bipolarity are undermined by the argument that the Korean war strongly influenced international history and indeed brought about most of the characteristics which we associate with the cold war. Without Korea, U.S. policy would have been very different, and there were no events on the horizon which could have been functional substitutes for the war. The international or the American domestic system may have "needed" high defense budgets, the globalization of American commitments, and the militarization of NATO, but these patterns arose only in the wake of Korea. To explain the cold war in terms of such requirements is therefore inadequate.
