Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kulturantropologi och etnologiSammanfattning : Through an examination of the businesses and people that support war-making, collectively known as the defense and security industry, this thesis reveals the controlling processes at work that make the business of war palatable to those who work within the industry.
