Abstract
This chapter examines the USA’s close alignment between capitalism and the State in the post–Civil War period onward, as well as the military-component included as part of an integrated ruling group and protector-underwriter of capitalist expansion and success after 1945. It also discusses the potential transitions of capitalism and socialism to fascism.
