Correct answer:  A) All European countries.

Explanation/context:

The "Marshall Plan" was named after the man who then was US Secretary of State, George C. Marshall.  Officially the plan was called the European Recovery Program.  Marshall announced the plan in 1947, and it went into effect in 1948.  The intent was to provide aid and rebuilding to European economies after the damaging effects of World War II.   Eastern bloc countries, however, rejected the plan, so it ended up as a plan that benefited Western European nations and not Eastern European nations.

In his speech introducing the plan, Secretary Marshall had said:  "Our policy is not directed against any country, but against hunger, poverty, desperation and chaos. Any government that is willing to assist in recovery will find full co-operation on the part of the United States. Its purpose should be the revival of a working economy in the world so as to permit the emergence of political and social conditions in which free institutions can exist."

The view in the communist-controlled Eastern bloc was that the US was trying to use such a policy to spread its influence and threaten their patterns of government under communism.

Define "paranoia." How was the paranoia of the 20s expressed? How was it related to isolationism?
elixir [45]

Paranoia refers to a feeling that can exist in humans and which is heavily influenced by anxiety or by fear. People who suffer from this often feel themselves to be persecuted, or hated and threatened by everyone. These people might also believe in conspiracies, which can result in irrational fear.

During the 1920s, the country experienced a period of paranoia. The trauma of World War I was fresh in people's minds, and many were fearful of ever being threatened in such a way again. This led to a strong fear of the "other." This was expressed in practices such as increased racism (ex. the rise of the Ku Klux Klan) or political intolerance (ex. the Red Scare against communists). This was also expressed through isolationism, as many people believed that by keeping the country free of foreign influence, they would be less threatened by dangerous foreign forces, such as communism.
