 | | It differs somewhat from the history of war with military history focusing on the people and institutions of war-making while the history of war focuses on the evolution of war itself in the face of changing technology, governments, and geography. | | | Military history is often considered to be the history of all conflicts, not just the history of proper militaries. | | | Military procurement refers to common regulations and requirements for a ship or a detached unit to requisistion and draw on a base's facilies (housing, pay, and rations for detached personnel), supplies (most commonly food stocks or materials, and vehicles) by the service running a primary base; e.g. |

| | The Aldershot Museum was originally created to 2 reflect the local military history of Aldershot (rather than regimental history) and this has provided an excellent basis for the inclusion of local history from a wider perspective. | | | It is proposed therefore that the assets of the 4 Aldershot Military Historical Trust be transferred to the County Council. | | | These proposals were considered by the Museums Panel at its meeting in February this year and the Panel resolved to support the transfer of the assets to the County Council and to request the Asset Management Sub-Committee to agree to the arrangements. |

| | War and Economic History |
| | Despite its pump-priming potential in specific circumstances, as during the 1930s, military spending generally acts to slow economic growth, since it diverts capital and labor from more productive investment (such as in roads, schools, or basic research). | | | However, they may have some predictive value to the extent they clarify the historical relationships between war and military spending on the one hand, and inflation and economic growth on the other. | | | The shadow of war lies across economic history, influencing its pace and direction, and war continues to both shape economic developments and respond to them. |

| | Economic history of Spain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | As its bullion supply decreased in the seventeenth century, Spain was neither able to meet the cost of its military commitments nor to pay for imports of manufactured goods that could not be produced efficiently at home. | | | This reorganization was quickly followed by the establishment of a committee on economic affairs and the Office of Economic Coordination and Planning under the prime minister. | | | It took place at a time of economic growth and optimism in Western Europe, which as a result was ready to accept increased Spanish exports, to absorb Spain's surplus labor, and to spend significant sums of money on vacations in Spain and on investments in Spanish industry. |

| | Readings: A Brief History of Hong Kong to 1910 |
| | China's desire to establish a consulate in Hong Kong to represent its substantial Chinese population was a leading aspect of the vigorous diplomatic activism of the late Qing. | | | In sum, Hong Kong's significance between 1842 and 1910 lay, on the one hand, in its own evolving identity as a developing colony, with all the complex social and political arrangements that involved, and, on the other, in its relationship to the progress of revolution in China. | | | But the British government agreed to Qing requests to exclude Sun from Hong Kong, where his presence was thought too dangerous and the likelihood he could illegally re-enter China too strong. |

| | Capitalism FAQ: Theory |
| | Capitalism is the only system which protects individual rights and freedom, but the variety of political systems which violate individual freedom are numerous: socialism, communism, fascism, Nazism, absolute monarchies, military dictatorships, theocracies, or the welfare state are all systems which infringe upon individual rights, which means they institutionalize the initiation of force against their citizens. | | | In allowing each individual to act unhampered by government regulations, capitalism causes wealth to be created in the most efficient manner possible which ultimately raises the standard of living, increases the economic opportunities, and makes available an ever growing supply of products for everyone. | | | Since all people must live independently under capitalism, all of the material values that a person acquires must be earned. |
