Jaelyn Acevedo · Answer 1

c) Placing in a lower or less important position

Explanation:

In the narrowest meaning of the word, "subordinating" means "establish an order of relationship between two linked beings, in which one becomes inferior and the other superior". However, in this case, the word subordinating is used in another context. To focus on the war industry, to the detriment to other ones, putting it on the top, and subordinate the lower ones.
