Abstract
In a novel way, we have measured the Brazilian defense and security complex. It corresponded to 3.7% of the Brazilian GDP in 2014. We have also estimated that the investment projects of Armed Forces have high socioeconomic impacts and great technological potential by demanding high-tech products and services. Unpublished information was collected from several public agencies (Ministries, Public Security, and Government Transparency Portal). With this, we estimate the security and defense sector in Brazilian input-output matrix and identify the sectoral profile of the defense investment projects. This innovative methodology can be applied to evaluate other public policies.

期刊介绍:
The journal Economia Aplicada (Brazilian Journal of Applied Economics) is a quarterly publication of the Dept. of Economics of the Faculty of Economics, Business and Accounting of the University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto (FEA-RP/USP). It was first published in 1997 by the Dept. of Economics of FEA-USP and by FIPE, with the primary concern of filling an editorial gap in Brazil. The Journal"s interest is to publish solely scientific papers on applied economics. Nowadays it has the same goal. Its focus is to publish papers with economic analysis applied to specific problems of interest either to public or private sector, especially with quantitative results bringing theory and reality closer.
