Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. ENKE, Stephen. Defense of Whom? Internal Note #30, 1963. 11"x 8.5", 11 sheets, offset. Unknown place of origin. [++] Dr. Stephen Enke was an "economist, and demographer with General Electric's Center for Advanced Studies, called TEMPO, and Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for economics in 1965" [++]Dr. Enke, manager of TEMPO's Washington office, was known for his scholarly articles, books and lectures based on his studies of population growth, the economics of developing countries and national defense in the nuclear age. He also studied offshore oil pollution. Before serving the Defense Department, Dr. Enke had held posts with the Agency for International Development, the Rand Corporation, the Institute of Defense Analysis and the Center for Naval Analysis. He served on university faculties, including Duke, Yale, the University of California at Los Angeles, and of Cape Town, South Africa. A graduate of Stanford University, Dr. Enke received his doctorate from Harvard."--NY Times obituary, September 28, 1974, Page 6. [++] "Introduction. The merits of different air defense combinations, against stipulated attacks, are usually compared in terms of fatalities, casualties, manufacturing floor space destroyed, etc., as these concepts seem relatively precise and susceptible to estimation. It is often held or hoped that something like fatalities can be considered an index, and that all the other kinds of human and physical damage that may result from air attacks, irrespective of the active and passive defense combinations used, will be somehow proportional to fatal- ities, This may conveniently be true. But it is an assumption that must sooner or later be examined. And qualitative arguments are advanced below to suggest that this proportionality need not hold when passive defense is selective. Then no one of the usual population injury dimensions can be more than a varying approximation of what it is that the US protects when it invests in some variants of civilian defense. Conceptually, there may be a single and relevant dimension for assessing different means of defending population however, and that is preservation of the present and discounted economic values of the population. Recognition that this should be the realistic goal of civilian defense could have many repercussions on warning, shelter, and recuperation plans. Several of these consequences are suggested here."--from the intro to the paper.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. ENKE, Stephen. Defense of Whom? "Internal Note #30", April 10, 1963. 11"x 8.5", 12 lvs. Mimeograph. VG condition (probably a little better than that). [++] I'm not 100% sure if this is a "modest proposal" contemplation of subtle outrageousness or if it is a real assignment of value to human life in the defense of a population against a nuclear attack by the Soviet Union on the U.S. I'm not saying that this sort of planning or thinking doesn't happen, and that it wasn't (isn't?) to some degree necessary, but the report has a hint of the recognition of the bottom-line absurdity that it is addressing. Dr. Enke a top-flight economist and demographer begins his discussion of passive and aggressive defense against nuclear attack by defining his terms and limiting the discussion to the preservation of the population and engages in a somewhat brusque discussion of the economics of fatalities. Frankly this is where I do not understand if he is mocking the futility of the exercise or if he is recognizing the difficult necessity of protecting the post-attack US for allocating resources to the preservation of surviving added-value people. For example, the author says that younger people will have a "post-attack value that is distinctly positive", with the "most valuable" be 20-30 years old; people of 60 "although still producers may have a zero capital value"; "older people may have negative economic worths". Also there's this "corpses are at worst a disposal problem", while "severely injured survivors are the real immediate problem, and caring for them is a nuisance, and their suffering will demoralize others". There's more like this. [++] I've read a number of reports like this that are drop-dead treatments of nuclear war survival issues like this, though none have used language and a presentation quite so, well, shocking, as this one. If the man was making a "Dr. Strangeloveian" statement on the utter absurdity of offensive and defensive planning for our nuclear war endgame, he did a very good job. I think it is not possible to come away from reading this report without a strong vision of Slim Pickens' Major Kong riding his nuke like a bronco buster into the great abyss of no-more-tomorrows.
