War economy

"Germany under Nazi rule was an especially good example for an increasingly effective war economy. During the 20s with the Versailles treaty still somewhat intact, Germany secretly started first development of dual-use technologies and then built the Battleship A. With Adolf Hitler in power Germany soon remilitarized the Rhineland and re-instituted conscription, the Military-industrial complex was expanded as well. As World War II started in 1939 Germany had a full-effective war economy."

This statement is almost completely false, see the Total war - Germany article for the state of the German wartime economy. If anything, Germany was probably the least efficient war economy in the world until 1944. I really can't see any way at all to rehabilitate this statement so I am removing it. --203.52.130.139 07:19, 3 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Macroeconomics

It would be nice to get a more thorough treatment of the econ part of this, especially with some nify graphs or something. I remember seeing some macroeconomics graphs on PBS YOU a couple months ago, about how government spending shifts aggregate demand, but I don't remember the specific details. --Interiot 22:25, 1 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with permanent war economy

Reject. They are different concepts. Both articles need expanding, however, and a section of each article should compare it to the other article. --Jim (Talk) 21:02, 20 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is no way these should be merged. One is a conspiracy / politcial idea that some government or army machine will try to create permanent war economy, which will hold power the other is just an economic state a nation is in when at war, It is like merging Communism with the soviet union.

Fair use rationale for Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg

Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Bias

This article is offensively chauvinistic and narrow in its focus. It should deal with the economies of countries other than the United States. The principal theatre of the first and second world wars was Europe, so it is necessary to deal with Britain, France and Russia at least. It would also be useful to look at the Austro-Hungarian, Serbian and Turkish economies in the 1st. With so general a title, the article would benefit from considering pre-20th century conflicts too. In its present form it gives a completely unbalanced view. Tim flatus (talk) 07:35, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
