Describe the assumptions and conclusions of the Nye investigations?

The Senate Nye Investigation Committee insisted that the US had been maneuvered into WW I by "merchants of death," industries that benefited from the war because it meant profits from the sale of their products to the government. The DuPont Corporation was one such business singled out by Senator Nye. He claimed the corporations considered profit over the death of American servicemen. The conclusion by the Nye Committee was popularized at the time by the book, The Road to War, by Walter Millis, published in 1935.

Senator Gerald Nye held hearings to look into why the US got involved in WWI in the mid 1930s.

Accordingly, Nye's committee's findings were used to justify isolationism and trade bans/Neutrality Acts in the mid 1930s, keeping the US out of WWII for a longer amount of time than they likely would have without these acts.
