The essence of this policy was called "containment" -- keeping communism where it was and stopping it from spreading.
The containment policy had been recommended by George F. Kennan, America's ambassador in Moscow after World War II. In 1946, he sent what became known as "the long telegram" of his advice about what the USA needed to do about the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). Kennan took note of the internal problems the USSR had. He advised not pushing the conflict too much, but instead just try to "contain" the Soviet Union rather than going to battle against the USSR directly.
