Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British War Administration This study of British War Administration by Professor Fairlie is one of a series of war studies organized by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace to lay a preliminary basis for future more thorough study of the effects of the war on economic and social life. It is hoped at some later time, after the distractions of the war are over, and the lives of men have returned to normal conditions, that we shall be able to measure more exactly and estimate more carefully the changes induced by the war in the administration of governments, and particularly the extent to which these changes are likely to be permanent. A superficial view and a hasty judgment would indicate that the world has taken great strides in the direction of state socialism. It is not surprising that the demand of the socialists for an extension of government activities in the sphere of economic life should be strengthened in war time by the added call of a large number of people who are impressed with the apparent efficiency of the management by government departments of certain industries for the purposes of the war. These new advocates of state socialism are not to be classed with what we may call professional socialists, but rather belong to that large class of the American people, to be found in a considerable number in any intelligent democracy, who are overimpressed with the temporary success of a new political or social experiment carried on under pretty definite conditions, with pretty definite ends in view. They forget that the economic and social life of the people is vastly more complex and difficult to adjust in normal times of peace activity than it is in time of war, when many of the ordinary industrial and commercial activities of the world are much reduced in scope and limited in number. Such people are impressed with the splendid success which the British Government has had in many of its wartime administrative expedients and organizations.

Download or read book How Churchill Waged War written by Allen Packwood and published by Grub Street Publishers. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analytical investigation into Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s decision-making process during every stage of World War II. When Winston Churchill accepted the position of Prime Minister in May 1940, he insisted in also becoming Minister of Defence. This, though, meant that he alone would be responsible for the success or failure of Britain’s war effort. It also meant that he would be faced with many monumental challenges and utterly crucial decisions upon which the fate of Britain and the free world rested. With the limited resources available to the UK, Churchill had to pinpoint where his country’s priorities lay. He had to respond to the collapse of France, decide if Britain should adopt a defensive or offensive strategy, choose if Egypt and the war in North Africa should take precedence over Singapore and the UK’s empire in the East, determine how much support to give the Soviet Union, and how much power to give the United States in controlling the direction of the war. In this insightful investigation into Churchill’s conduct during the Second World War, Allen Packwood, BA, MPhil (Cantab), FRHistS, the Director of the Churchill Archives Centre, enables the reader to share the agonies and uncertainties faced by Churchill at each crucial stage of the war. How Churchill responded to each challenge is analyzed in great detail and the conclusions Packwood draws are as uncompromising as those made by Britain’s wartime leader as he negotiated his country through its darkest days.
Download or read book Manpower and the Armies of the British Empire in the Two World Wars written by Mark Frost and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first and only examination of how the British Empire and Commonwealth sustained its soldiers before, during, and after both world wars, a cast of leading military historians explores how the empire mobilized manpower to recruit workers, care for veterans, and transform factory workers and farmers into riflemen. Raising armies is more than counting people, putting them in uniform, and assigning them to formations. It demands efficient measures for recruitment, registration, and assignment. It requires processes for transforming common people into soldiers and then producing officers, staffs, and commanders to lead them. It necessitates balancing the needs of the armed services with industry and agriculture. And, often overlooked but illuminated incisively here, raising armies relies on medical services for mending wounded soldiers and programs and pensions to look after them when demobilized. Manpower and the Armies of the British Empire in the Two World Wars is a transnational look at how the empire did not always get these things right. But through trial, error, analysis, and introspection, it levied the large armies needed to prosecute both wars. Contributors Paul R. Bartrop, Charles Booth, Jean Bou, Daniel Byers, Kent Fedorowich, Jonathan Fennell, Meghan Fitzpatrick, Richard S.
