First named by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in his farewell address, the Military-Industrial Complex was originally tailored to develop and produce military technologies equal to the existential threat perceived to be posed by the Soviet Union. An informal yet robust relationship between the military and industry, the MIC pursued and won a qualitative, technological arms race but exacted a high price in waste, fraud, and abuse. The author tells here the comprehensive history of the MIC from the Cold War, through the War on Terror, and to the present day. He argues that the MIC is now significantly different than it was when Eisenhower warned of its dangers, still exerting a significant but diminished influence in American life. Focusing on the three decades since the end of the Cold War in 1991, the author explains how a lack of cohesion, rapid change, and historical contingency have transformed America's military-industrial institutions and infrastructure. An authoritative account of America's evolving arsenal since World War II, this book is a dynamic exploration of military preparedness and current events.
