Explanation:

After World War II, Europe was devastated by the long period of conflict. The war lasted six years, enough to drive many countries into chaos, harming the economies of the countries involved.

In that context, the two major powers emerging as winners of the conflict were US and USSR. However, these powers would dispute the hegemony of the global economic system. The USSR sought to implement the model of socialist economic production while the US sought to strengthen capitalism.

The US saw socialism as a threat to the world. To contain the advance of socialism, one of the strategies was precisely to promote economic aid to the destroyed nations, in order to maintain them as allied nations and to induce the continuity of capitalism.

In this context of economic reconstruction, the Marshall Plan was launched in 1947, an ambitious project of US loans and financial donations to the European allies devastated by the Second World War. The Marshall Plan was a success and the countries of Europe quickly recovered.
