Formerly the demand was almost entirely confined to the selection of weapons and their tactical application. Later, interest broadened into analytical studies of logistics and manpower. Some years ago activity was extended to include international strategic studies, and at present there is a developing interest in research on the effects of defence activities in general, internationally, and also on the Canadian economy and on Canadian society.
