In order to get credit for this project you must write an essay on the following topic:
The Containment Policy
The official policy of the US towards communism throughout the Cold War was summed up in a policy called The Containment Policy. The idea of this policy was to prevent communism from spreading, and the US did this in a variety of ways on a variety of fronts. Using three specific examples of the US implementing this policy, write an essay of 600 words or more explaining whether or not the Containment Policy was a success or not. Pick three examples to write about from the following list: (each example is also a link to a Wikipedia article on the subject)
This is actually an easy essay to write: pick three of the following items and read the Wikipedia articles asking yourself, "Who won? US or USSR?" and this gives you the answer to the success/failure of containment for that particular example. Turn your three examples into your three body paras and make sure to discuss the success or failure of the Containment Policy throughout your essay. Please let me know if you need additional help.
