European Integration: US Plan for Protection of Western Europe against Communism
 Brach, Radim ; Anděl, Petr (advisor) ; Raška, Francis (referee)
After the World War II Europe was in a situation in which there was no possibility of enhancing its prosperity on its own. At that moment it was necessary to choose one of the dominant opponent sides the USA or the USSR to cooperate with. Due to political and economical systems similarity Western Europe joined the side of the United States, which immediately started developing new approaches towards defeated Germany, expansionistic Soviet Union and devastated Europe. This resulted in formulation of containment policy which was later developed into the Truman doctrine and the Marshall plan. In the first post- war years the main tool of the United States approach towards European stability was economical help. Development of economies was impossible without active cooperation among European countries and therefore the United States and especially the Congress pressed for economic integration. It was also supposed to create better connection between European economies and to enable the expansion of American goods to Europe. At the beginning of 1950s with the first sparks of Korean War the main stress was laid on cooperation in defensive field. All these attempts for enhancing the US position and development of Europe also led to the initiation of European integration process.
