TY - JOUR PY - 1996// TI - The comparison of military budgets of the eastern and central European countries JO - Defence and peace economics A1 - Fontanel, Jacques SP - 135 EP - 147 VL - 7 IS - 2 N2 - The evolutions of military expenditures in Eastern and Central European countries are difficult to estimate and to compare, due to the lack of available data for these states. Some results of the extent of cuts in defence spending since 1990 are interesting to interpret, but it is difficult for econometricians to use these figures even carefully. The structures of national military expenditure have been modified to the detriment of arms equipment. Thus, the disarmament process needs a special analysis of the arms industry.
