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.
