- Title
Resources and Strategy: Vital Materials in International Conflict 1600--the Present (Book).
- Authors
Goodman, David S. G.
- Abstract
The article presents information about the book "Resources and Strategy: Vital Materials in International Conflict 1600--The Present," by Ian O. Lesser. The book offers an analysis of how resource issues shaped military strategies of the U.S. and outcomes in the two World Wars. In its post-war sections the book is more concerned with the role of critical materials in American perceptions and military strategies than with their actual importance in international conflict. The author asserts that the perceptions of resource vulnerability have had a profound impact on American post-war strategic planning.
