The Marshall Plan was aimed at the economic recovery of postwar Europe to prevent the spread of communism and indirectly boost the American economy through required purchase of essential materials.
The goal of the Marshall Plan, also known as the European Recovery Program, was to provide economic assistance to rebuild postwar Europe in an effort to prevent the spread of communism. Its establishment came from the recognition of the appeal of communism to impoverished and war-devastated Europeans, hence Congress approved the Economic Cooperation Act in 1948 to pump an eventual total of $12 billion into Europe's economy. This aid was vital in helping Western Europe to rebuild their infrastructures, restore industrial capacities, and prevent the American economy from an economic depression, since many of the necessary materials needed to be purchased from the United States.
