| Abstract |
"In The Contest over National Security Peter Roady shows how Franklin Roosevelt made the Democrats into the party of national security-and how the coalition between business leaders and social conservatives that made modern conservatism possible was cemented during the national security debates in the 1930s and 1940s, reshaping American politics for decades to come."-- Provided by publisher. |
