Technically speaking, the "cold war" never became "hot", because the USA and the USSR never fought a war against each other, which would have involved nuclear weapons and the end of the human race. There was fighting in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan (1980's) but, there was never a direct war between the United States and the Soviet Union.
There had been a poster in my IB AP European History class that said "Cuban Missile Crisis: When the Cold War Got Hot." So the Cuban Missile Crisis was probably when the Cold War got hot.

Why is the Cold War called Cold War?
The cold war was not an actual 'war'. However there were several times that it came close to becoming a war though. I hear about that if the tension and push for expansion of the USSR continued and they advanced on the other sectors and captured them that there might have been another World war.
What where the political causes of the cold war?
Communism verses non-communists. But, communists and non-communists EXISTED before the cold war. The Atomic Age created the cold war. If no nuclear weapons existed, there would have been no cold war. There would probably have been a hot one. World War 3 if the the communists wished to start one. But without atomic weapons, it would have been a world war fought looking very much like the Korean War did; jets against jets, etc.
