| Abstract
|
:
|
"Since World War II, the U.S. government has spent more than $10 trillion on defense. Although everyone in the United States must pay taxes supporting defense contracts, ten states have obtained 75 percent of all defense contracts and expenditures. In Congress and Defense Spending, Barry S. Rundquist and Thomas M. Carsey examine how the distribution of defense contracts is influenced by the interaction of state and local economies with the organization of Congress." "The authors have researched the geographic distribution of defense spending among all fifty states from 1963 to 1995 to examine how previous state representation on defense committees has affected current committee representation and how committee and party representation in Congress has in turn influenced the distribution of defense expenditures."--BOOK JACKET.
