CL lesson 18. It says

for homework, take the view assigned to your group. Use that perspective in researching the responses required for your group. Use the years 1946 to 1963 in compiling your information.

Group B
Truman's diplomatic problems in 1945 were threefold. First, since the prewar collective security system in Europe had been shattered, the reconstruction of American alliances in Europe to preserve a new balance of power there was imperative for American security. Germany was crushed, England and France were exhausted, and in this power vacuum Soviet hegemony seemed virtually unchallenged. Second, the organization of the United Nations required immediate attention. The united states was expected to play a leading role in putting it in operation. A third immediate problem was the rebuilding of many war-ravaged areas in Europe, a task that could be accomplished only if the United states assumed major responsibility.

Following World War 2, some people contended that the United States had a primary responsibility for world peace. Research diverse view of the Truman administration including memoirs. Evaluate the previously-stated contention in light of its time.
