The Economic Cooperation Administration (ECA) was a U.S. government agency set up in 1948 to administer the Marshall Plan. It reported to both the State Department and the Department of Commerce. The agency's first head was Paul G. Hoffman, a former leader of car manufacturer Studebaker; he was succeeded by William Chapman Foster in 1950. The rest of the organization was also headed by major business figures such as Arthur A. Kimball (who was a key contributor to the ECA's founding) as well as David K.E. Bruce (who worked at the Office of Strategic Services in Europe during World War II).

dbo:abstract
  • Die Economic Cooperation Administration (ECA) war ein US-amerikanisches Amt, das im Jahre 1948 vom Kongress der Vereinigten Staaten im Foreign Assistance Act zur Verwaltung der amerikanischen Unterstützungsgelder des Marshallplans gegründet wurde. Es unterstand dem Außenministerium und dem Handelsministerium der Vereinigten Staaten. Die ECA stand unter der Leitung von , einem ehemaligen Manager von Studebaker, sowie weiterer führender Menschen aus der Wirtschaft. Obwohl in jeder Hauptstadt der sechzehn am Marshallplan teilnehmenden Länder ein ECA-Büro eingerichtet wurde, konnten die einheimischen Beamten die erforderlichen Maßnahmen besser überblicken als die ECA-Mitarbeiter. 1951 wurde das Amt durch die neugeschaffene Mutual Security Agency (MSA) ersetzt. Einige der in Deutschland mit Marshallplangeldern finanzierten Siedlungen tragen noch heute den Namen ECA-Siedlung oder MSA-Siedlung. (de)

Bruce (who worked at the Office of Strategic Services in Europe during World War II). The ECA had an office in the capital of each of the 16 countries participating in the Marshall Plan. In theory the ECA served as joint administrator of the Marshall Plan development projects in each European country. In practice, local officials knew far more about what was needed than ECA representatives, who developed a management strategy of listening to local officials and allowed them to set priorities for reconstruction assistance. It was succeeded by the Mutual Security Agency in 1951, one of the predecessor to the United States Agency for International Development. (en)
  • L'Economic Cooperation Administration (ECA) è stata un'agenzia governativa statunitense, istituita ufficialmente con un decreto firmato dal presidente Truman il 3 aprile 1948, per amministrare l'erogazione degli aiuti previsti dal Piano Marshall. Diretta fino al 1950 da Paul Gray Hoffmann, ex presidente della casa automobilistica Studebaker e dal 1950 al 1951 da William Chapman Foster, faceva capo al Dipartimento di Stato e a quello del Commercio. Un ufficio dell'ECA era presente in ciascuna capitale dei paesi che beneficiavano degli aiuti, per meglio valutare in loco le specifiche esigenze delle varie economie. Venne abolita il 10 ottobre 1951 e le sue funzioni furono trasferite, a partire dal 1º novembre dello stesso anno, alla Mutual Security Agency. (it)
