Beyond the traditional two-dimensional analyses of defense economics and defense politics lies a rapidly growing field of research: the political economy of defense. As the study of the interface between economics, politics, and defense proliferates, this collective volume sets out to identify the nature of political economy of defense inquiry, surpassing a narrower focus on the economic consequences of military spending.
The starting point for this collaborative effort was a series of panel discussions, organized by Andrew L. Ross, in which most of the contributors to this volume participated. The majority of chapters were written expressly for this book and have not been previously published. These analytical and empirical investigations are intended to illustrate the broad, encompassing scope of political economy of defense research and contribute to the development of a research agenda. Andrew L. Ross has brought together a timely and significant array of inquiry into the impact of defense spending on world politics and global economics. This book will be of great interest to political scientists, defense specialists, and economists studying the military-industrial complex.
ANDREW L. ROSS is Professor of National Security Affairs in the National Security Decision Making Department at the U.S. Naval War College and an Associate at the Center for International Affairs, Harvard University. From 1989 to 1991 he was a Secretary of the Navy Senior Research Fellow at the U.S. Naval War College. A frequent contributor to periodicals and edited volumes, his research interests include arms markets, defense industrialization, weapons acquisition, and security and development issues.
