Nato Benefits, Burdens And Borders: Comment

Author

Listed:
  • Todd Sandler

Abstract

This note refutes criticism raised by Solomon about past tests used to ascertain the concordance between NATO benefits and burdens. In so doing, a case is made for keeping the benefit proxy based on exposed borders. Moreover, a truer sensitivity analysis than that offered by Solomon is suggested.
