DESCRIPTION
If the effects of globalization on civil liberties and human rights remain a continuing debate, the effects of globalization on defence in particular are even less well understood. What does the latest research tell us about the relationship between globalization and conflict or cooperation? How will globalization affect a state’s revenue collection and, in consequence, how will it affect the way that a country allocates its budget to various priorities and to defence in particular? How will the international flows of workers and humanity, as well as technology, affect the state’s procurement and acquisition policies? Will the increasing economic integration of national economics into the international economy through trade, direct foreign investment by corporations and multinationals as well as increase in short-term capital flows alter threat perception or will new threats arrive that need to be addressed? This volume addresses these and other questions in three main parts.
