Question

the containment policy of the united states was dedicated to containing which of the following most precisely?
○ authoritarianism
○ capitalism
○ communism
○ national socialism

Explanation:

The US containment policy during the Cold War aimed to prevent the spread of Communism. Capitalism was the US's own economic system, authoritarianism is a broader political concept not the target, and National Socialism (Nazism) was addressed in WWII, not via containment policy. So the correct option is the one related to Communism.

Answer:

C. Communism
