Caleb James DeLisle (npub1mh5…233h) Hang on, Bretton Woods agreed on using gold, NOT the USD. It was only until 1971 that the USA decouple the dollar from the gold.
Let me remind you that from 1944 until late 60s the Soviet Union just kept expanding and the USA was basically losing the ideological battle in the cold war. A lot of things changed around 60s and 70s and that's when the US started shining and the soviets decaying.
In no way did the immediate aftermath of WW2 point to USA hegemony.
