With the end of the cold war, "liberal democracy" and capitalism is DingYuYiZun, is call "capital camp" victory. But in fact the cold war is over, history does not end, then end of is what? Can think is a mutual closed and against the poles of the world. During the cold war, the world be artificially divided became several camps: military is NATO and the Warsaw pact treaty against; Politics is beauty Sue two camps; The economy is divided into the "common market" and "JingHuHui"football uniforms.
