America's policy toward communism, particularly during the Cold War, was primarily characterized by containment, aimed at preventing the spread of communism beyond its existing borders. This was articulated through various strategies, including military alliances (e.g., NATO), economic aid programs (like the Marshall Plan), and direct military interventions in conflicts perceived as proxies for communist expansion. The U.S. also engaged in ideological warfare, promoting democracy and capitalism as alternatives to communism. Overall, the policy was driven by a belief that communism posed a significant threat to global stability and American interests.
