Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Amidst the turmoil of World War I, the author recounts the urgent need for wartime food control to prevent both extreme scarcity and hoarding. Their argument is bolstered by an exploration of the many paradoxes inherent in the suspension of free market principles and the introduction of arbitrary price controls. This book details the specific measures used to control the food trade, including licensing schemes, profit control, and restrictions on contracts. Above all, it emphasises the cooperative spirit in which an entire industry embraced voluntary sacrifice in pursuit of one shared goal: winning the war. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331611158_0
