World War 2.
"Scorched Earth" policy
Appeasement postponed WW II for a year or so.
For the Allies it implied placing a limit on Axis expansion into strategic areas. Post-World War Two, it was the United State's push to restrict Communism whenever possible, usually through embargoes against existing communist countries.Actually, Containment didn't begin until after WWII, because during WWII the U.S and U.S.S.R were allies, after WWII though, both began competing for supremacy, and the U.S was strongly opposed and afraid of communism, thus they invented containment, which, in short, is any action to prevent the spread of communism into other countries.

Following WWII, the United States came to the realization that a policy of isolationism and general neutrality was insufficient for world affairs. The United States, following the war, adopted the Truman Doctrine policy of containment. Thus, the U.S. sought to contain communism and prevent it from spreading. This required the U.S. to become greatly involved in world affairs, propping up questionable or nefarious regimes simply to prevent them from falling to Soviet communism. These interventionist policies led to U.S. involvement in the Korean War, the Vietnam War and the Gulf War as well as numerous small scale conflicts such as incursions into various Central American countries and the bombing of Libya, invasion of Grenada and others.
The three major global incidents showing the seriousness of how America was taking the policy of containment are the Berlin Airlift, the Korean War, and the Cuban Missile Crisis. America's involvement in each of these incidents are examples of the policy of containment.
