To understand war, you also have to understand economics. Ralph Raico’s lecture “The World at War” is a masterpiece. Recorded in 1983, it remains perhaps the best introduction to the classical-liberal interpretation of the two world wars of the twentieth century. Raico touched on many of the topics he discussed in this lecture in his other writings, but he never wove them all together as concisely as he does here.
