The “Industrial-Military Complex” in Historical Perspective: World War I

Paul A. C. Koistinen

Business History Review, 1967, vol. 41, issue 4, 378-403

Abstract: Because of a scarcity of economically informed and managerially experienced personnel within the government, a large share of American mobilization during World War I was planned and executed by businessmen in temporary federal service. By focusing on the crucial question of military procurement, Professor Koistinen illuminates the war's legacy for government-business relationships.
