520 "How did the global Cold War influence American politics
at home? For Might and Right traces the story of how Cold
War defense spending remade participatory politics,
producing a powerful and dynamic political coalition that
reached across party lines. This "Cold War coalition"
favored massive defense spending over social welfare
programs, bringing together a diverse array of actors from
across the nation, including defense workers, community
boosters, military contractors, current and retired
members of the armed services, activists, and politicians.
Faced with neoliberal austerity and uncertainty
surrounding America's foreign policy after the 1960s,
increased military spending became a bipartisan solution
to create jobs and stimulate economic growth, even in the
absence of national security threats. Using a rich array
of archival sources, Michael Brenes draws important
connections between economic inequality and American
militarism that enhance our understanding of the Cold
War's continued impact on American democracy and the
resilience of the military-industrial complex, up to the
age of Donald Trump"--|cProvided by publisher.
