摘要

本研究考察了1992年至2020年135个国家军事部门效率对经济增长-国防开支关系的作用。效率源于军事部门的资本密集度和技术外部性的存在以及与武器出口有关的规模经济。我们的研究结果表明，更高的效率水平可以缓和或消除军事负担对经济增长的不利影响。在介绍联盟参与时，我们强调北约对其效率水平较低的成员国的“保护”作用，而上海合作组织似乎不太支持。

Spend on what? Insights on military spending efficiency

This study investigates the role of military sector efficiency on the economic growth-defence spending relationship in 135 countries from 1992 to 2020. Efficiency stems from capital intensity of the military sector and the existence of technological externalities and economies of scale associated with armaments exports. Our findings indicate that a higher level of efficiency can moderate or eliminate the adverse effects of military burden on economic growth. Introducing alliance participation, we highlight the ‘protective’ role of NATO for its member-states with lower efficiency levels, while SCO seems to be less supportive.
