Abstract

Given the capital committed to the military sector, disarmament does not lead to useful dividends for the civil economy. Doesn't the military sector provide, through deterrence, security against the predation system of other countries, which constitutes a useful service for the entire national economy? How, in the history of economic thought, has this relationship been treated? Are armament and/or disarmament the consequences of economic factors? What are the economic foundations of disarmament in economic thought? Are defence efforts to be considered a burden? Disarmament takes many forms and leads to different economic outcomes. What is the rationality of the disarmament agenda for development? Is it not an impediment to disarmament if transfers from the national civil economy go partly to aid to the Third World in a tense sectorial and regional economic situation? Several answers have been given to this questioning.
