1970s

The 1970s was the decade that began on January 1, 1970, and ended on December 31, 1979. It is generally regarded by historians as a transitional period between the postwar order and the more globalized, market-oriented world that emerged in the late 20th century. The decade was marked by major economic and geopolitical disruptions, including the breakdown of elements of the postwar economic system, oil shocks, stagflation, political realignments, and the continuing decline of European colonial empires, alongside significant advances in civil rights, feminism, environmentalism, human rights, and technology. At the same time, the Cold War remained the dominant framework of international politics, although the decade witnessed important shifts in the balance of power and the growth of transnational issues such as globalization, environmental protection, and population growth.
