The Containment Policy of the Truman administration was basically an offensive threat to the expansion of the Soviet Union. It threatened to use force should the Soviets attempt to expand in areas that were not under Soviet control. Yet, it could also be considered defensive, because it let the Soviets know that we would protect our interests in Europe and Asia, but not make the first military move. Containment would be a reply to any aggressive action by the Soviets. The policy was not only military, but also an economic and diplomatic policy. The Marshall Plan and the Truman Doctrine are examples of diplomatic and economic attempts of the Containment Policy in action. Korea and Vietnam are also military examples.
America realized that it was generally the poorer, less well off countries that turned to communism. So by creating the marshall plan, not only is america gaining european allies, but also reducing the number of poor nations and giving the remaining poor an alternative to communism, thus stopping its spread and containing it.
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.
An example of the Truman containment policy is the Marshall Plan, initiated in 1948, which aimed to provide economic aid to Western European countries to help them rebuild after World War II. This plan was designed to prevent the spread of communism by stabilizing economies and promoting political stability. By assisting nations in recovering economically, the U.S. sought to contain Soviet influence and prevent countries from falling under communist control.
Foreign Policies after 1945 include the Marshall Plan, the Truman Doctrine, containment of communism with in the U.S.S.R., and The establishment of NATO.
The term "containment policy" that most US people are familiar with is the "containment of communism" during cold war. Meaning, stopping the spread of communism world wide. Actually the answer your looking for is the Marshall Plan
