Nonamiya [84]

Shifting of resources from butter to gun would lead to movements along the curve as more gun would be produced and less butter.

Pacifism becoming less popular which increases gun production, would cause movement along the curve.

Increase in consumer desire for butter increase the amount of butter produced . This would generate a movement along the curve
