The Mutual Security Act of 1951 launched a major American foreign aid program, 1951–61, of grants to numerous countries. It largely replaced the Marshall Plan. The main goal was to help poor countries develop and to contain the spread of communism. It was signed on October 10, 1951, by President Harry S. Truman. Annual authorizations were about $7.5 billion, out of a GDP of $340bn in 1951, for military, economic, and technical foreign aid to American allies. The aid was aimed primarily at shoring up Western Europe, as the Cold War developed. In 1961 it was replaced by a new foreign aid program, the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, which created the Agency for International Development (AID), and focused more on Latin America.

  • The Mutual Security Act of 1951 launched a major American foreign aid program, 1951–61, of grants to numerous countries. It largely replaced the Marshall Plan. The main goal was to help poor countries develop and to contain the spread of communism. It was signed on October 10, 1951, by President Harry S. Truman. Annual authorizations were about $7.5 billion, out of a GDP of $340bn in 1951, for military, economic, and technical foreign aid to American allies. The aid was aimed primarily at shoring up Western Europe, as the Cold War developed. In 1961 it was replaced by a new foreign aid program, the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, which created the Agency for International Development (AID), and focused more on Latin America. The Mutual Security Act also abolished the Economic Cooperation Administration, which had managed the Marshall Plan and transferred its functions to the newly established Mutual Security Agency (MSA). The Agency was established and continued by acts of October 10, 1951 (65 Stat. 373) and June 20, 1952 (66 Stat. 141) to provide military, economic, and technical assistance to friendly nations in the interest of international peace and security, but was abolished by Reorganization Plan No. 7 of 1953, effective August 1, 1953, and its functions were transferred to the Foreign Operations Administration. The act however, was extended by appropriators each fiscal year until the early 1960s. As the Marshall Plan was ending, Congress was in the process of piecing together a new foreign aid proposal designed to unite military and economic programs with technical assistance. In the words of Secretary of State Dean Acheson, who testified before Congress, Western Europe needed assistance against Soviet "encroachment." The measure was intended to signal Washington's resolve to allies and to the Kremlin that the United States was capable of and committed to containing communism globally, even while it fought a protracted land war in Korea. The measure took about two months to work its way through the House, meeting resistance from fiscal conservatives along the way. Republicans were divided about the cost of the expenditures; nevertheless nearly half (80) joined the overwhelming majority of Democrats to pass the measure 260 to 101 on August 17. John M. Vorys of Ohio summed up GOP support for the measure, noting that military aid to "nations who will fight on our side" is "sound economy." Representative James P. Richards of South Carolina, chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, noted that the Mutual Security Act was intended "not to fight a war" but "to prevent a war." (en)

  • Mutual Security Act är en amerikansk lag från 1951 genom vilket det amerikanska biståndet, militärt, ekonomiskt och tekniskt, fastställdes. Biståndet skulle dels hjälpa fattiga länder till utveckling, men också motverka spridningen av kommunism. Lagen förnyades år för år till 1961 och orsakade årliga debatter om storleken på det militära biståndet och relationen mellan militärt och civilt bistånd. (sv)
  • 《共同安全法》是1951年10月10日美国国会通过的对外援助法案。美国国会以前通过的《经济合作法》(1948年4月,为期4年)、 《》 (1949年10月6日)和 《国际开发法》 (1950年6月5日)均包括在这个共同安全计划之内。以通过向友好国家提供军事援助、经济和技术援助促进美国外交政策的实现,达到“确保美国安全和促进它的对外政策”的目的。该法案标志着战后美国以对西欧援助为主扩大对全世界反共前线国家或地区,从经济援助为主(马歇尔计划)转变为军事援助为主。该法于1961年初由美国国会通过新的《1961年对外援助法案》取代。 根据《共同安全法》,美国的各种对外“援助”都统一到“共同安全计划”(Mutual Security Program)之内。规定了1951-1954年的援外拨款数额,并大大增加了军事援助所占的比重,撤销管理马歇尔计划的,设立直属于总统的“”,威廉·埃夫里尔·哈里曼为首任署长,统一掌握对外援助。在援助北约成员国的拨款中指定每年一亿美元的专款,用于对苏联和东欧国家的颠覆破坏活动经费。1951年10月31日,国会拨款74.83亿美元(当年美国GDP为3400亿美元),供主管部门第一年使用,即从1952年1月1日开始使用,其中军事援助占款60亿美元,经济援助占款14.4亿美元。美国对外援助中,欧洲60.5亿美元(其中军援52.2亿美元),南韩重建4500万美元。1952年3月,杜鲁门总统要求追加拨款79亿美元,其中90%用于军费开支。 根据《共同安全法》,每个财政年度国会都将审议、批准对外援助金额与计划。 (zh)
