Is War Necessary for Economic Growth?: Military Procurement and Technology Development
Ruttan, Vernon W. (Regents Professor, Department of Applied Economics and Economics, Regents Professor, Department of Applied Economics and Economics, University of Minnesota (Emeritus))
Military and defense related procurement has been an important source of technology development. Changes in the structure of the defense industries and of the US industrial economy make it unlikely that military and defense related procurement would become an important source of revolutionary technologies in the absence of a major war.
