History

Answer: The Marshall Plan allowed the United States to compete for power with the USSR without using force.

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.  

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.  So the plan ended up building allies for the US in Western Europe, while the Eastern European countries sided with the Soviet Union.  So it was an example of Cold War tactics of competition between the US and the USSR, apart from the use of military force.

Why have debate become more consistent since 1987
lara [203]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, or there is no specific reference to what kind of debates, we can comment on the following.

We assume you are talking about Presidential debates. If that is the case, then debates become more consistent since 1987 because, in this year, the Commission on Presidential Debates was created due to the initiative of the Democratic and Republican parties, in order to have a more professionally organized structure for the debates, so people could be more interested in the format.

Describe the options available to circuit court judges once they have heard an appellate case.
daser333 [38]
Write In Your Own Words...
District courts have original jurisdiction over cases involving federal laws (including maritime, patent, and copyright law). That is, they serve as the venues in which jury trials are executed. US courts of appeals are forums in which decisions made in district courts may be appealed or considered again. This does not mean that another trial will occur at the appellate court. Circuit courts consider any possible mistakes or misinterpretations of the law made by the district court judges. In a sense, circuit courts merely serve as checks on the performance of district court judges.

One reason Spain sponsored the first voyage of Columbus to the west
zloy xaker [14]
<span>The country that could find a direct route to the far east would have an advantage over all the other countries trading with the East. That is what Spain was looking for, an advantage over all the others. They got lucky and found a lot more. In fact, a direct route to the West Indies wasn't found until 4 years after Columbus discovered the new world.
