The Cold War
1. Answers will vary.

Because the Marshall Plan was meant to stop the spread of communism in economically weakened countries, this rejection probably made the United States realize that a policy of containment was the only way to control the spread of communism.
2. Answers will vary. The policy of deterrence actually fed the arms race, because deterrence relied on the idea that huge arsenals of nuclear weapons held on both sides would prevent war.
