Games of the World Behind the Scenes: Views of the Jurist P. S. Romashkin
( Pp. 85-94)

The article examines the institution of monopolies from the point of view of influence on world processes. The prominent Russian jurist P.S. Romashkin characterized the post-war era from the standpoint of strengthening militarism in Western states, expressed in a significant increase in the state budget, a significant part of which was military spending. P. S. Romashkin drew attention to the considerable role of the American-British monopolies in arming Hitler's Germany, which provided loans to create a powerful military industry, arming the Wehrmacht. The researcher argued that Hitler's Germany could not have resisted for so long if a number of cartel agreements between the largest American and German monopolies had not contributed to this. A striking example of the use of war to get out of economic decline was the role of American monopolies in unleashing a war against the Korean people.
