How did the Marshall Plan differ from the Truman Doctrine?

Excellent answer. The Marshall Plan, the brainchild of George C. Marshall (who had been head of the Allied Chiefs of Staff during WW II), really had no intended connection to the Truman Doctrine and the policy of "Containment." It did, however, bring the US and USSR into conflict over the rebuilding of Germany and the western sectors of Berlin, and so became entangled in the Containment Policy, which was the invention of George Keenan. By rebuilding Western Europe and seeking to prevent the spread of Communism by all means possible, not only military means, the two policies became for a time two integral parts of Truman's foreign policy. The Marshall Plan, of course, ended when it's purpose was finished, but Containment remained a vital part of US policy until the economic collapse of the Soviet Union. That economic collapse was the very point of Keenan's plan.

Which period of US foreign policy focused on the containment of the spread of communism in other nations?

The period of U.S. foreign policy that focused on the containment of communism is primarily known as the Cold War, which lasted from the late 1940s to the early 1990s. This strategy was articulated in the Truman Doctrine and implemented through various means, including military alliances like NATO, economic aid programs such as the Marshall Plan, and direct interventions in conflicts around the world, such as in Korea and Vietnam. The goal was to prevent the expansion of Soviet influence and the spread of communist ideology globally.

Was the containment policy essentially offensive or defensive?

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.
