Michael Hogan shows how The Marshall Plan was more than an effort to put American aid behind the economic reconstruction of Europe. American officials hoped to refashion Western Europe into a smaller version of the integrated single-market and mixed capitalist economy that existed in the United States. Professor Hogan's emphasis on integration is part of a major reinterpretation that sees the Marshall Plan as an extension of American domestic and foreign-policy developments stretching back through the interwar period to the Progressive Era. Michael Hogan is Professor of History at Ohio State University and editor of Diplomatic History.

The Marshall Plan presents the fullest account yet written of America's program to assist Europe after World War II - certainly the most celebrated and successful peacetime foreign policy pursued by the United States in the twentieth century. But as Michael Hogan shows in this rich and detailed book, the Marshall Plan was more than an effort to American aid behind the economic reconstruction of Europe.
