SSSSS [86.1K]

<u>Which method was more effective in containment? Why?</u>

The Marshall Plan was an example of using financial resources to stop the spread of communism.

Approved by Henry Truman in 1943, the Marshall Plan was a far more effective method in containment because of the following reasons:

  • Firstly, it was a subtle method to contain the spread of communism through the USSR disguised as a "plan" to help Western Europe and its decreased economy through loans.
  • Secondly, it was a peaceful method that didn't result in devastation as the Korean War.
  • Thirdly, it was perceived as a "miracle" and the US gained recognition for their efforts, as well as increasing their own economy.
  • Furthermore, through the US' humanitarian efforts it tried to implicitly change the beliefs of the Western European people towards a non-communist political system, for which the Marshall Plan succeeded in the subsequent years.
