Resum

This paper analyses de determinants of the demand for defence expenditure in the NATO countries during the period 1996-2006. The study has been approached through three different sets of variables, related to economic aspects, strategic and military factors and political issues. In the empirical analysis it has been used dynamic panel data. The main results are the important role played by the inertia of the defence budgets a long the time, the effect of the income and prices and the existence of a spill-in effect.
