Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Costs and Their Financing: A Study of the Financing of the War and the After-War Problems of Debt and Taxation The effort has been made in this volume to present in broad outline the salient features of war finance and some of the financial problems now confronting the United States and the leading nations of Europe. Although it is still too early to assess accurately the relative importance of various economic and financial measures and events, there is a certain gain in recording them while they are still fresh in mind. Many events were so extraordinary, and the measures taken to cope with them so unprecedented, that much time and study will be required finally to determine their part in the World War. But that they played an important role in determining the outcome of the struggle is clear. The "silver bullets" were equally decisive with those of lead or steel in deciding the victory. Never before were the differences between a good and a vicious theory of war finance so important and so far-reaching, for never before have war expenditures reached such stupendous figures. It had been hoped that the wide ramifications of international credit and trade would constitute an effectual guarantee against war, but this hope was rudely dashed. Again, when war actually began, it was confidently predicted that the financial exhaustion of the belligerents would bring it to an end after a few months, but events proved these prophecies also false. A constantly recurrent problem throughout the whole war was the question as to whence came the enormous sums which were expended with such reckless prodigality.

Download or read book Funding Extended Conflicts written by Richard M. Miller Jr. and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-08-30 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One aspect of war is often overlooked: how much do they cost and how are they funded. Funding Extended Conflicts develops a baseline on Federal spending for the two extended conflicts of the Cold War era, Korea and Vietnam, and compares them with the global war on terror, including current outlays for Iraq and Afghanistan. It also provides wartime cases that offer recommendations on how to pay for future wars and focuses on the length of the tails of such spending, which are often omitted in the final analyses and distort funding estimates. Background chapters examine financing and budget issues as well as problems associated with defining the real cost of Korea, Vietnam, and the so-called long war against terrorism and are complemented by an assessment of the open-ended commitment to support homeland defense and conduct ongoing military operations in Southwest Asia.

Download or read book How States Pay for Wars written by Rosella Cappella Zielinski and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2016-07-11 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Armies fight battles, states fight wars. To focus solely on armies is to neglect the broader story of victory and defeat. Military power stems from an economic base, and without wealth, soldiers cannot be paid, weapons cannot be procured, and food cannot be bought. War finance is among the most consequential decisions any state makes: how a state finances a war affects not only its success on the battlefield but also its economic stability and its leadership tenure. In How States Pay for Wars, Rosella Cappella Zielinski clarifies several critical dynamics lying at the nexus of financial and military policy.Cappella Zielinski has built a custom database on war funding over the past two centuries, and she combines those data with qualitative analyses of Truman's financing of the Korean War, Johnson’s financing of the Vietnam War, British financing of World War II and the Crimean War, and Russian and Japanese financing of the Russo-Japanese War. She argues that leaders who attempt to maximize their power at home, and state power abroad, are in a constant balancing act as they try to win wars while remaining in office. As a result of political risks, they prefer war finance policies that meet the needs of the war effort within the constraints of the capacity of the state.

Book excerpt: The long wars in Iraq & Afghanistan have cost the U.S. in many ways. For the U.S. mil., the human toll has been profound. The damage to our internat. reputation has been severe. And the full econ. costs of the war to the Amer. taxpayers & the overall U.S. economy go well beyond even the immense fed. budget costs. The ¿hidden costs¿ of the Iraq war include: the ongoing drain on U.S. econ. growth created by Iraq-related borrowing, the disruptive effects of the conflict on world oil markets, the future care of our injured vets, repair costs for the mil., & other undisclosed costs.
