Origins of the Warfare State

Más información sobre el libro

The book explores the concept of a "warfare state" that emerged in the post-World War II era, analyzing its structures, policies, and ideologies. Author Carl Boggs argues that the legacy of the "Good War" has fostered an authoritarian system that has progressively undermined liberal-democratic values. He contends that contemporary American electoral politics not only fail to challenge this warfare state but may also escalate it towards a threshold reminiscent of fascism.
