Why did the Secretary of State Marshall suggest his plan for European recovery?

The reasons why the Marshall plan was created have been argued over since they were first voiced. There is even debate whether Marshall had anything to do with their conception at all and that he was just to present the idea to the world. However it is obvious that there were three main reasons that are probably above debate. * To halt the spread of communism * To Ensure that American Businesses with money and exporting businesses wrapped up in Europe didn't suffer. * And lastly to stop some people in some European countries from literally starving as Hitler had left devastation across much of Europe. Although the World economy wasn't as tightly linked in the 40's and 50's as we see it is today, it was still linked enough to cause concern so America would have suffered without Europe and vice versa. (I.e. the need for Global solutions to the economic mess we are all in right now that emanated from America) and that is why the business world always keeps a close eye on the politics of US / European relationships. Some could say that the Marshall Plan was an excellent business plan because America knew that the countries of Europe were made of strong willed people who would literally rise from the ashes and create successful businesses that America could be in at the beginning Very Savvy Politics more than altruistic as it was supposed to appear. I hope this helps Good Luck

How did the Marshall plan help post-war Europe?

Some critics say the money was spent on rebuilding militaries and warring. Others say the money saved Europe from being made into communist countries. If you asked the Europeans who benefited from the money they would tell you the money rebuilt their nations and economies. I vote for the latter after seeing how well Europe did recover and have stabilized the peaceful and democratic nations of Europe
