Eisenhower, war hero and thirty-fourth president of the United States, sank to a low point after he left the White House in January 1961. Although his personal popularity with the American public had not diminished during his eight years in office, the academic and journalistic communities that had criticized his tenure, his policies, and his personal leadership continued to believe that he had presided ineffectually over an era of relative inactivity. Most of Eisenhower’s critics seem to have supported the social programs of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal and Harry S Truman’s Fair Deal, and during the 1960s they quickly shifted their admiration and allegiance to the liberal elements of John F. Kennedy’s New Frontier. They saw Eisenhower’s conservative agenda as a program to benefit the privileged and the wealthy, a Republican reaction to the progress made under Democratic reformers. Liberal scribes and pundits deplored his refusal to take on the dark beast of the 1950s, Senator Joseph McCarthy. They derided Eisenhower’s efforts to achieve fiscal responsibility and decentralized government, claiming that these efforts were little more than a smokescreen covering the president’s insensitivity to the needs of the less fortunate elements of American society. Eisenhower’s foreign policy (which had, after all, resulted in seven-and-one- half years of peace) came in for somewhat less criticism. Nevertheless, many deplored the administration’s emphasis on nuclear weapons and the doctrine of massive retaliation. Others were shocked at the covert interventions in Iran and Guatemala. Most of the criticisms dating from the early 1960s, however, were directed at Eisenhower’s supposed failure to pursue the cold war vigorously and successfully. Eisenhower’s misguided efforts to balance the federal budget, it was said, had resulted in an inadequate military posture and

  • Atoms for Peace: Eisenhower and Nuclear Technology
    NATIONAL EISENHOWER MEMORIAL EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS LESSON Atoms for Peace: Eisenhower and Nuclear Technology Duration One 45-minute period Grades 7–12 Cross-curriculum Application U.S. History, World History, Media Arts NATIONAL EISENHOWER MEMORIAL LESSON: ATOMS FOR PEACE | 1 EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS Historical Background The advancement of nuclear technology and the subsequent devastation to Nagasaki and Hiroshima in 1945 from atomic bombs dropped on them during the final stages of World War II introduced a completely new means of waging war to the world. The fears that Americans associ- ated with nuclear weapons only increased as first the Soviet Union and then communist China developed their own atomic bombs. The issue of nuclear power was not just a problem for America but a global challenge, compli- cated largely by the lack of scientific data regarding military effect and environmental impact. It was within this context that Eisenhower took the unprecedented step of promoting the use of atoms for peace rather than for war. To convince Americans that nuclear power had positive benefits for the country, the federal government under Eisenhower launched a program called “Atoms for Peace.” The program took its name from a stunning speech delivered by Eisenhower to the United Nations General Assembly in 1953. Eisenhower believed that “the only way to win World War III is to prevent it.” He recommended the creation of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to help diffuse political tensions and solve the “fearful atomic dilemma” by both monitoring atomic weapons and support- ing research into peaceful uses for atomic energy such as medicine and agriculture.

  • Is War Necessary for Economic Growth?
    Historically Speaking-Issues (merged papers) 09/26/06 IS WAR NECESSARY FOR ECONOMIC GROWTH? VERNON W. RUTTAN UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA CLEMONS LECTURE SAINT JOHNS UNIVERSITY COLLEGEVILLE, MINNESOTA OCTOBER 9, 2006 1 OUTLINE PREFACE 3 INTRODUCTION 4 SIX GENERAL PURPOSE TECHNOLOGIES 5 The Aircraft Industry 6 Nuclear Power 7 The Computer Industry 9 The Semiconductor Industry 11 The Internet 13 The Space Industries 15 TECHNOLOGICAL MATURITY 17 IS WAR NECESSARY? 20 Changes in Military Doctrine 20 Private Sector Entrepreneurship 23 Public Commercial Technology Development 24 ANTICIPATING TECHNOLOGICAL FUTURES 25 PERSPECTIVES 28 SELECTED REFERENCES 32 2 PREFACE In a book published in 2001, Technology, Growth and Development: An Induced Innovation Perspective, I discussed several examples but did not give particular attention to the role of military and defense related research, development and procurement as a source of commercial technology development. A major generalization from that work was that government had played an important role in the development of almost every general purpose technology in which the United States was internationally competitive. Preparation for several speaking engagements following the publication of the book led to a reexamination of what I had written. It became clear to me that defense and defense related institutions had played a predominant role in the development of many of the general purpose technologies that I had discussed. The role of military and defense related research, development and procurement was sitting there in plain sight. But I was unable or unwilling to recognize it! It was with considerable reluctance that I decided to undertake the preparation of the book I discuss in this paper, Is War Necessary for Economic Growth? Military Procurement and Technology Development.

Jasper The nationalist vs. globalist conflict is not merely an he whole world has gone insane ideological struggle between shadowy, unidentifiable and the lunatics are in charge of T the asylum. At least it looks that forces; it is a struggle with organized globalists who have way to any rational person surveying the very real, identifiable, powerful organizations and networks escalating revolutions that have engulfed the planet in the year 2020. The revolu- operating incessantly to undermine and subvert our tions to which we refer are the COVID- constitutional Republic and our Christian-style civilization. 19 revolution and the Black Lives Matter revolution, which, combined, are wreak- ing unprecedented havoc and destruction — political, social, economic, moral, and spiritual — worldwide. As we will show, these two seemingly unrelated upheavals are very closely tied together, and are but the latest and most profound manifesta- tions of a global revolutionary transfor- mation that has been under way for many years. Both of these revolutions are being stoked and orchestrated by elitist forces that intend to unmake the United States of America and extinguish liberty as we know it everywhere. In his famous “Lectures on the French Revolution,” delivered at Cambridge University between 1895 and 1899, the distinguished British historian and states- man John Emerich Dalberg, more com- monly known as Lord Acton, noted: “The appalling thing in the French Revolution is not the tumult, but the design. Through all the fire and smoke we perceive the evidence of calculating organization.
