Final answer:
The phrase 'tolerance cures' appears to be a typo, but the question likely refers to historical documents that define the policy of containment. The Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan are examples of documents tied to containment strategy during the Cold War. A consensus regarding the more effective policy would involve comparing the impacts and approaches of these documents.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question "Tolerance cures are typically determined by which document?" seems to contain an error, as 'tolerance cures' does not directly relate to a historical document or concept. The question appears to be discussing policy, particularly related to containment, which suggests that the student might be asking about historical documents or policies that defined the policy of containment during the Cold War era. Such policies are typically outlined in government and policy documents. Historically, key documents such as the Truman Doctrine or the Marshall Plan could be debated in terms of their effectiveness in applying the policy of containment.
When reaching a consensus on which document won the 'duel' and why, and determining which would have been the more effective application of containment policy, one would likely compare the impacts and strategic approaches of these documents and others like them (e.g., NSC-68). The Truman Doctrine was aimed at containing the spread of communism by providing political, military, and economic assistance to all democratic nations under threat from external or internal authoritarian forces, whereas the Marshall Plan was focused on economic recovery of war-torn Europe, which in turn was meant to prevent the spread of communism by stabilizing the economies.
