Adaptive Israel defense industry: myth or reality? / Palavenis, Donatas   Journal Article
Palavenis, Donatas Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article investigates the context and development of the Israel Defence Industries (IDI) during the period 1930–2018. During this timeframe, the IDI was forced to transform several times with the Israel Ministry of Defence acting as the main facilitator. Well established links among government institutions, academia, investors and the IDI contribute to armament quality and innovations which supports market expansion. Nevertheless, US support remains an important enabler in facilitating the IDI developments. Nowadays, the IDI is an important player in Israeli economics that contributes to the exports and facilitates developments in other sectors.

Armaments after autonomy: military adaptation and the drive for domestic defence industries / DeVore, Marc R   Journal Article
DeVore, Marc R Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract State investments in domestic defence industries are one of the most puzzling trends in international relations. Economists contend that these investments waste resources, while political scientists claim that armaments’ resultant overproduction fuels arms races. Why then do governments cultivate defence industries? I draw on cases from Israel, South Africa and Iraq to argue that the answers to these questions are distinct. Fears about supply security frequently spur states to begin developing arms industries, and elites’ techno-nationalist beliefs often sustain their defence-industrial investments. Defence industries’ primary national security value, however, lies in their hitherto unappreciated contribution to states’ military adaptation capacity.

Armaments decision-making: Are European states really different? / Mawdsley, Jocelyn   Journal Article
Mawdsley, Jocelyn Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract When states make decisions on armaments policy, it is generally agreed they try to achieve combinations of foreign, security, industrial, economic, and technological policy goals alongside equipping their armed forces as efficiently as possible. It is, however, consistently argued in both the defense-economics and EU-studies literature that for European states things are (or should be) different. This article contributes to this debate by bringing together these disparate literatures to critically examine the proposition that the existence of a semi-regionalized European defense economy fundamentally changes state calculations on armaments policy. It critically examines the two main claims made about behavioral change: that European states accept a liberalized European defense market governed by the EU and make armaments decisions on a value-for-money basis, or that defense interdependence is so advanced that European states no longer need to consider their national interests because these are subsumed in the European interest. The article then considers an alternative perspective, that state behavior has not changed but is restricted by the existence of a European defense market that, intentionally or not, works to protect the interests of the biggest European arms-producing states.

China's defense technology and industrial base in a regional co: arms manufacturing in Asia / Bitzinger, Richard A   Journal Article
Bitzinger, Richard A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract This paper examines defense industrialization in three leading arms-producing states in Asia - India, Japan, and South Korea - and how their experiences compare to China's recent defense industrial developments. It argues that despite decades of considerable effort and investments in pursuit of a techno-nationalist self-arming strategy, these countries have experienced only modest success when it comes to achieving such self-reliance. Most regional defense industrial bases lack the necessary design skills and technological expertise in order to truly innovate, and at best these countries act as 'late innovators' when it comes to armaments production. The experiences of these countries have lessons for China as it attempts to move into the first tier of arms-producing states. China has over the past 15 years made significant progress in modernizing its defense technological and industrial base. At the same time, China faces the same long-term challenges that currently confront other regional arms industries - that is, making techno-nationalism work at the later stages of innovation. This is particularly critical as China's defense industry strives to move from a basically platform-centric to an increasingly network-centric technological-industrial process.

0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The paper examines the issue of efficiently managing federal budget investment in the production of new weapons depending on the effectiveness of relevant enterprises within the defense industry complex. The efficiency of arms production finds specific numerical expression in an interconnected system of indicators that characterize the degree of effectiveness in the use of major production elements.
