Examining the recently heightened tendency to war and militarism, the author looks past George W. Bush and the neo-conservatives in the administration.
Full Description
This wide-ranging, interdisciplinary analysis blends history, economics, and politics to challenge the prevailing accounts of the rise of U.S. militarism. While acknowledging the contributory role of some of the most widely-cited culprits, this study explores the bigger, but largely submerged, picture: the political economy of war and militarism.
