U.S. action chose containment as a response to the spread of communism during the Cold War, primarily influenced by the belief that if one country fell to communism, neighboring countries would follow—a theory known as the "domino effect." This strategy was articulated by diplomat George F. Kennan, who argued for a firm and vigilant approach to prevent Soviet expansion. The policy was implemented through various means, including military alliances (like NATO), economic aid (such as the Marshall Plan), and direct military intervention in conflicts like the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Ultimately, containment aimed to limit Soviet influence globally without provoking direct military confrontation.
