H1110 CONTAINMENT POLICY
Here is your goal for this lesson:
Write a report analyzing the Cold War policy of containment
Many Americans have questioned whether fighting a full-scale war against China or a war of containment was the best policy for fighting the Korean War. Using the Internet, library, and other sources, research how Truman and MacArthur differed over strategy in fighting the Korean War. After analyzing each position, determine whether Truman or MacArthur had the best strategy.
In an essay of approximately 350-400 words: • State why you believe Truman or MacArthur had the best strategy in fighting the Korean War. • Give your reasons and arguments for the position you have chosen and make your arguments as convincing as possible. • Does it appear to you that either strategy is based upon biblical principles? In what way and which principles are given expression by the policy or strategy?
