Abstract

Este trabajo analiza la relaci n entre el gasto en defensa y la renta de los quince miembros de la OTAN entre 1960 y 2002 con un tratamiento homog neo que permite hacer comparaciones entre pa ses que pertenecen a una misma alianzamilitar. La estimaci n simult nea de la demanda de defensa con la ayuda del m todo de regresiones aparentemente relacionadas divide la muestra entre pa ses de alta y de baja elasticidad renta. Estos ltimos incluyen a las grandes potencias econ micas y militares dentro de la Alianza. En conjunto, la renta explica bien la demanda de gasto en defensa la principal excepci n es Estados Unidos y el comienzo de la posguerra fr a aparece como una inflexi n relevante en la estimaci n.
