Answer: Lenin was professional revolutionary (and a Marxist theorist) inspired by 19th-century Western thinkers and socialist movements. He organized and led Russian bolshevist revolution (1917) - which attracted immediately attention in all the world and soon was followed by worldwide foundations of Communist parties. So Lenin can be viewed as an international figure. Lenin also believed (because of prophetic aspect of Marxist theory) in world Communist revolution and was ready to export Bolshevist revolution to other countries. During Lenin´s rule (17-24) there was a believe in a possibility to scientifically mold human beings in more perfect humans ....so Bolshevists invited Freudians and together worked on growing more perfect generations (kindergartens, schools etc.), under Stalin all that finished. The main failure of Stalin was his incapacity to bring up a his follower (there was a big rivalry and later conflict between Stalin and Trotsky). Joseph Stalin came to power in mid-1920s (coup within the top ranks of the Communist party) and continued in power until his death 1953. During his reign USSR was even more engaged in the export of its ideology. Stalin is considered a criminal because of his "Great Purge" in 1930s (34-9) but because of "Big famine" (1932-34) especially in Ukraine and North Caucasus. He took care of his Personality Cult. Stalin´s USSR is a totalitarian regime. After his death his personality cult was revealed and criticized. During Lenin´s rule and Stalin´s rule ...there was an intense industrialization, investments in industry. Stalin won the WW II ...that is also noteworthy. During reign of both leaders USSR became very attractive for a big part of European left and also in overseas (especially South America).

Answer:
The Marshall plan helped prevent the turn to communism of Western Europe, which was a possiblity, especially in Italy and France, where communist parties where very strong.
The logic of the Marshall plan was to help rebuild and develop Western Europe, to show them the benefits of capitalism and a market economy, and prevent like that, the spread of communism from Eastern Europe.
This goal was achieved because no Western European country turned to communism since the end fo the World War, even when socialist and communist parties got to power.
The goal of the Berlin airlift was to prevent a shortage of goods in West Berlin after the Soviet Union blocked supplies to the city.
The Soviet Union wanted to force the US to abandon the city by blocking Berlin, since the Soviet Union dominated all areas sorrounding Berlin. However, the US was able to keep control of West Berlin by supplying the city through air.
Maintaining control of West Berlin was very important for the US for both strategic and symbolic reasons, and the success of the Berlin airlift was a crucial part of the strategy.
