摘要
This study examines the effects of military expenditure on investment in 13 selected OECD countries over the period of 1971-2012 by applying the Smith Demand-Side model and different estimation methodologies including panel data, cross section and time series estimation methods. Our empirical results reveal that military expenditure crowds out investment and that crowding-out effect lessens during the Post-Cold War period.
