Arms race -- Economic aspects
description:
Moderated by Reuben Zubrow. Harvey Averch describes the economics of deterrence and post-attack economics. Rudolph Winnacker discusses how the military can continue its current expenditures without "militarizing our society" and how "peace through strength" can deter future war. Clarence Ayres explains why limited civilian consumption – not military spending – is the cause of slow economic growth. Richard Miles talks about the effects of nuclear war on Great Britain and whether Great Britain should continue its nuclear weapons program.
