The Pentagon and the Cities



October 1991 | 224 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
This volume focuses on the profound impact of defence spending on those local and regional economies that have become dependent upon defence contracts. Contributors discuss the historic role of defence expenditure, patterns of regional change, restructuring the military-industrial complex, the impact and transformation of regional economies and the question of defence spending as urban policy.
