abstract="This paper presents a multiple public-good model to investigate the simultaneous provision of military goods and foreign aid as international public goods. The model enables us to probe the effect of comparative advantage  in providing public goods. By applying the model to the United States-Japan alliance, we find that within the framework of the alliance the United States will specialize in the provision of military goods, while Japan will specialize in foreign aid; that is, the United States has a comparative advantage in the provision of military goods, and Japan in foreign aid.<p />",
