About War Movies and Economics: Lessons from Hollywood’s Adaptations of Military Conflict (Routledge Economics and Popular Culture Series)

War Movies and Lessons from Hollywood’s Adaptations of Military Conflict applies ongoing research in the relatively new genre of economics in popular media to Hollywood’s war movies. Whether inadvertently or purposefully, these movies provide numerous examples of how economic principles often play an important role in military conflict.The authors of the chapters included in this edited collection work to illustrate economics lessons portrayed in adaptations such as Band of Brothers , Conspiracy , The Dirty Dozen , Dunkirk , Memphis Belle , Saving Private Ryan , Schindler’s List , Spartacus , Stalag 17 , and Valkyrie . Aspects of these stories show how key economic principles of scarcity, limited resources, and incentives play important roles in military conflict. The movies also provide an avenue for discussion of the economics of public goods provision, the modern economic theory of bureaucracy, and various game-theoretic concepts such as strategic moves and commitment devices. Where applicable, lessons from closely related fields such as management are also provided.This book is ideal reading for students of economics looking for an approachable route to understanding basic principles of economics and game theory. It is also accessible to amateur and professional historians, and any reader interested in popular culture as it relates to television, movies, and military history.
