“…Debates that had been central during the Cold War as to whether militaries were impediments to modernization (Ball 1988;Deger and Sen 1983;Faini, Annez, and Taylor 1984;Hurewitz 1969;Shils 1962) or dynamic agents of social change and economic development (Alexander 1995;Benoit 1973;Berger 1960;Bill 1969;Halpern 1963;Johnson 1962;Kusi 1994) shifted in the post-Cold War era. Emphasis was laid on the demilitarization process, marking a transformation in the role of the military from "defense to development" (Cock and Mckenzie 1998;D'souza 1995).…”

“…1 Ball (1988) argued that in the developing countries external security issues for defence are not the main concern, but internal security considerations are as important as external security considerations. It is generally agreed that the level of military expenditure are determined by five factors, which can be stated as follows:…”

Although a number of studies concerning Turkish defence-growth relation have been published in recent years, little attention is given the demand for Turkish defence expenditure. This is an important issue for understanding which variables contribute to the determination of the demand for military expenditure. However, it is difficult to develop a general theory or a standard empirical approach for the determination of the demand military expenditure. This study models and estimates the demand for Turkish defence expenditure for the period 1951-1998 using autoregressive distributed lag approach to cointegration (ARDL) following the methodology outlined in Pesaran and Shin (1999). This procedure can be applied regardless of the stationary properties of the variables in the sample and allows for inferences on long-run estimates, which is not possible under alternative cointegration procedures. The findings suggest that Turkish defence spending is determined by NATO's defence spending, Greece's defence spending and some security considerations.

This paper investigates theoretically and empirically the determinants of military spending in Africa. It specifies a formal model and uses time-series and cross-sectional estimations to ascertain the reasons behind variations in military allocations across and within 40 African countries during 1960-1991. The differences in military expenditures appear to reflect a complex of economic, political, and strategic factors at both national and international levels. Strategic considerations are, however, found to be the most important factors in most African countries.
