About this ebook
Defense Budget Evolution explores the complex relationship between European defense spending, NATO burden-sharing, and transatlantic security. It examines how historical events, internal politics, and economic realities shape the military expenditure of European nations within the NATO alliance. The book reveals that defense spending isn't solely driven by external threats, but also by factors like domestic political ideologies and fluctuating transatlantic relations. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for predicting future trends in European defense and the overall strength of NATO, especially given the evolving landscape of international relations and military strategy.
The book's approach combines quantitative analysis of military spending with qualitative assessments of political and strategic contexts. Beginning with the historical context since NATO's inception, it progresses through key factors influencing budgetary decisions, case studies of specific European nations, and the impact of alliance agreements like the Wales Pledge. This allows for a nuanced understanding of European defense policy, challenging simplistic narratives about NATO burden-sharing.
By offering a data-driven analysis of European defense spending, the book provides valuable insights for policymakers, military strategists, and anyone interested in the future of European security.
