The purpose of this book is to analyse world military expenditure at the end of the 1980s, and to discuss its political and economic implications. After a decade of unprecedented expansion of international military spending, its level is falling, though modestly. Political developments in Europe and the success of arms control negotiations raise hopes for further reductions. In addition, technological and economic structural disarmament is adding to the pressure for reductions. However, performance has not matched up to promises, and formidable obstacles to defence spending limitations still remain. Military Expenditure surveys recent events and describes the process of change that characterizes international military expenditure, and its determinants, at this time of transformation.

The author, an eminent policy analyst, applies strategic balance of power models to African security issues for the first time, and formulates the "Praetorian Index" to gauge levels of military corruption, and the risk of social unrest and civil war. He compares the fine line between sufficient and excessive military spending across ten countries and defines regional indicators of genuine security need or ambition. This controversial work will interest agencies and policy analysts involved with international development and official development assistance, and is essential reading for anyone interested in disarmament issues or international risk management.

This paper studies the evolution of worldwide military spending during 1970-2018. It finds that military spending in relation to GDP is converging, but into three separate groups of countries. In the largest group, responsible for 90 percent of worldwide spending, outlays have remained stubbornly high. Military spending in developing economies reacts to improvements in security conditions and military spending in neighboring countries, suggesting that further increases in the peace dividend are possible. In developing economies, rising social spending tends to crowd out military outlays, but this is not the case in advanced economies. With social outlays projected to rise as developing countries look to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), military spending could come under pressure to fall further.

Formulating a Plan for Economic Diversification in Defense Dependent Communities

This project studies economic dependency on defense spending in certain communities and formulates methods to help those localities diversify their economies. The project asks whether such communities should pursue a more varied economy and whether federal assistance should be made available to help with the effort. The focus is on creating an economic development process that will allow dependent areas to spur growth in other economic sectors, thereby broadening their respective economic bases. The process is applicable to locations near military bases and to those areas near large defense contractors. By their reliance on military spending, communities are vulnerable to the cyclical nature of defense spending. The programs that have been used in the past to assist communities have offered assistance after spending reductions had already occurred. This report proposes a proactive planning approach to mitigate the communities of their reliance on Pentagon spending by giving the localities help in broadening their economic base as a matter of course, before cuts occur, as part of the communities' overall development planning. The idea behind the concept is that spending on defense is not an equitable or sustainable way to invest in the fiscal well-being of the country. Investments in communities tend to provide many more positive benefits to the local, state and national economies. By investing some defense funds to strengthen some communities, all concerned would be better off.
