The correct option is d) 1989.

The year 1989 is widely recognized as the pivotal year that marked the beginning of the end for the Cold War's domination of international politics, largely due to the fall of the Berlin Wall in November and the subsequent revolutions across Eastern Europe. These events significantly weakened the Soviet Union's influence and directly led to its eventual dissolution in 1991.
