Jacques Gansler's Defense Conversion: Transforming the Arsenal of Democracy (Cambridge: MIT Press, 1995) remains the most comprehensive blueprint for a Pentagon strategy on the defense-industrial base. Articles presenting contrasting views on the advisability of the mid-1990s mergers include William Kovacic and Dennis Smallwood's "Competition Policy, Rivalries and Defense Industry Consolidation" (Journal of Economic Perspectives, Fall 1994); Lawrence Korbs "Merger Mania" (Brookings Review, Summer 1996); and John Dowdy's "Winners and Losers in the Arms Industry Downturn" (FOREIGN POLICY, Summer 1997). Randall Forsberg, ed., The Arms Production Dilemma: Contraction and Restraint in the World Combat Aircraft Industry (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1994) documents worldwide excess capacity in fighter jets.
