Wheat at War - Allied Economic Cooperation in the Great War

Wheat at War explores how the Allies in the First World War created international institutions, such as the Wheat Executive, that were given the authority to make shipping and wheat distribution decisions on behalf of all the allies. As a case study, the Wheat Executive improves our understanding of international institutional design, the importance of commodities during wartime, economic coordination amongst wartime coalition members, and the legacies of international cooperation during the First World War.
