containment
Containment theory, primarily associated with sociologist Walter Reckless, began to gain prominence in the early 1960s. It was introduced in Reckless's work "The Crime Problem" published in 1967, where he explored how internal and external factors influence individuals' behavior and the propensity to commit crime. The theory emphasizes the role of social controls in preventing deviant behavior.

Germany was not divided as a result of the containment theory, but it definitely suffered under it. The containment theory was based on the idea that if one country becomes communist, it will become a chain reaction and more and more countries would also become communist. Therefore, it was the world's job to stop this from happening and "contain" the spread of communism. The US didn't really fight against the USSR on German soil to prevent more communism, like it did in Vietnam.

Containment theory, developed during the Cold War to prevent the spread of communism, is not directly relevant to the concept of Pax Americana, which refers to the relative peace and stability maintained by American dominance after World War II. However, containment did play a role in shaping US foreign policy during this period, which in turn influenced the establishment of the Pax Americana.
