The correct answer is: "increasing understanding of American values and creating a receptive international environment".
In the 1950s international tensions shaped the emergence of two that two confronted blocs in the global sphere: the Western bloc leaded in the US and constituted by the capitalist countries under its influence and the Eastern bloc leaded by the URSS and constituted by the communist countries under its influence.
Together with the containment strategy against communism, the US aimed to spread the American values and way of life worldwide, even within the Eastern Bloc, organizing events with US jazz players in its capital Moscow. The intention was to show, in the heart of the URSS, how the American model that they critized so much was not that bad if, for example, it was producing such good quality music.
Slide guitar is a form of technique linked with blues music. It was during the 20th century that this technique developed among blues musicians in the American South. There are also links of its origin to the diddley-bow from Africa. However, it was also almost the same time when the Hawaiian (steel) guitar—a style that emerged in the late 19th century but executed a similar slide technique—was gaining popularity on the mainland through Hawaiin concert tours. In conclusion, it is likely that both blues music and Hawaiian guitar paved their own way to become influential in the course of their early development.
