Origins of Containment


How did Containment and the Marshall Plan help define the second half of the 20th century?

The containment policy (its target: the worldwide containment, and blocking of the further spread, of Communism) led to first the Korean War and later, the Vietnam War. It was also a major driving force for the 'cold war' between the US and Russia that lasted until 1989. In the Third World, it led to often massive US support and development aid for any country or leader that called itself anti-communist or who was threatened by resistance or liberation groups that called themselves socialist or communist. The Marshall Plan led to massive and essential US help to European countries that had been hard hit by WW 2, to rebuild their economies. The Containment Policy played a clear role in this Plan, since the US in this way also wanted to prevent the spread of Communism in Western Europe. So Plan and Policy were interlinked, and they were directly or indirectly responsible for most of the major post-war developments in Europe, Asia and the Third World.
