Pentagon Capitalism: How the Cold War US Military Modeled Itself on Private Business
A. J. Murphy
Pentagon Capitalism traces the Cold War evolution of the US military into something resembling a for-profit corporation. Seeking to manage an increasingly unwieldy military bureaucracy, defense leaders sought lessons from business consultants, imposed Taylorist discipline, turned officers into managers, and privatized ever more security functions.
