Abstract

French economists address the question of defence only in the budgetary area of military spending. Yet national defence and security are necessary for the economy as a whole, even if, in peacetime, spending is often described as unproductive. The question is then raised of the "burden of defence", as if it did not provide the security necessary for all economic activity. Defence economics has not yet found its place as a fundamental discipline of economic science.
