The Tehran Conference had the utmost significance for the Allied military strategy in World War II and decided the fate of the post-war world order for generations to come. It was a critical juncture, a bifurcation point, in the course of international relations. This article examines the situation in which the meeting between the three Allied powers took place. In line with the systematic approach to global realities, two main stages can be distinguished in the development of world diplomacy during the first half of the 20th century: in the aftermath of World War I and following World War II.

Abstract:
World War II marked the beginning of the forty-five years long period of tense peace, described as the Cold War. Two superpowers that emerged from World War II started to compete for hegemony over the world, representing two diametrically different political and economic systems. In any other historical period, such situation would lead to an inevitable great war, but after 1945 the competition was threatened by the possibility of using nuclear weapon whose capability of destruction was so enormous that neither of parties ventured direct confrontation.

It argues that it is through the intersection of past and present, of unresolved trauma superimposed upon present anxieties, that 1950s science fiction films acquire topical relevance within their historical context. Science fiction films from the 1950s are a belated response to the national trauma of World War II and the Korean War projected onto the unsettling experience of the Cold War. With
