Sinossi
War is not only fought. It is financed, manufactured, marketed and monetised.
In War Inc., Muhammad Sajjad Haider investigates the political and commercial systems that turn insecurity into advantage. From the industrial arms houses of nineteenth-century Europe to the Cold War, the War on Terror, nuclear proliferation, drone warfare and cyber conflict, the book traces how governments, corporations, financiers and military institutions have shaped one another—and how the costs are borne by societies living with the consequences of organised violence.
Taking the United States as its principal modern case while following the global arms trade through Europe, South Asia, the Middle East, Russia, China, Ukraine and Gaza, War Inc. shows that war profiteering is neither confined to one country nor explained by one ideology. Its forms differ: private contractors and lobbyists in some systems; state-owned enterprises, export agencies and political patronage in others. The recurring question is the same: what happens when those charged with providing security acquire an interest in the duration and expansion of conflict?
Combining historical narrative with political analysis, War Inc. is essential reading for readers of international relations, military history, public policy and the political economy of war.
