The History of Business and War
---------------------------------------------------------
Special Issue Call For Papers The History of Business and War

Since the beginning of time, business has been involved in warfare and in
preparation for war. This includes manufacturing or trade in armaments and
munitions, foodstuffs, clothing or other provisions, logistical services, or the
financing of warfare.

In the 20th century, the role of business in war - including the Cold War
- expanded to new fields not usually associated with the defence industry. This
included participation in various planning and information committees,
preparations for evacuations and relocation, or the organisation of refugee
camps.

This Special Issue of the Scandinavian Economic History Review is designed to
cover topics in any time or region related to the participation of companies in
war/defence efforts or in preparation for war and to the dimensions of war
economics.

Among others, possible topics to be addressed in this special issue might be:

Armaments manufacturing
Arms trade
Financing the armaments industry
Direct and indirect effects of war (and the Cold War) on business opportunities
and trading systems
The emergence and growth of military industrial complexes
Effects of neutrality on business
The role of business in preparations for blockades (storage of raw materials,
dual use factories etc.)
Preparations by civilian industries for war production
Corporate participation in government planning and war administration
Corporate involvement in intelligence

Contributions may also aim to bridge the gap between military history, political
history and business and economic history. Contributions are welcome on any
industry or country.
