NATO Burden Sharing Research along Three Paradigms / Bogers, Marion; Beeres, Robert; Bollen, Myriame   Journal Article
Bollen, Myriame Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This paper provides both a quantitative and a qualitative review and interpretation of 153 journal papers on NATO burden sharing behaviour published over the period 1966–2020. Based on our findings, we distinguish three paradigms, reflecting the main questions and views within their particular realm of burden sharing research. Subsequently, these three paradigms study (1) the distribution of defence burdens amongst NATO member states; (2) the determinants of NATO burden sharing behaviour; and (3) how contributions to the public good of individual member states merge to determine the overall level of the good available for consumption. For each paradigm, a qualitative insight in evolving bodies of literature is offered. As it turns out, most burden sharing studies are limited to one paradigm and its ensuing main question. Future research may benefit from cross-fertilization across paradigms, longitudinal approaches and a widening of empirical foci to encompass novel threats.

SDI, NATO, and the social composition function / Rochère, Ghislain Dutheil de la; Josselin, Jean-Michel; Rocaboy, Yvon   Journal Article
Rochère, Ghislain Dutheil de la Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract The strategic defense initiative (SDI) intends to renew the leadership of the USA on the western alliance. The initiative takes place in a period when a summation technology prevails for the aggregation of contributions of NATO allies. We investigate if SDI induces a shift in Hirshleifer's social composition function. Panel data tests over the period 1970-1990 do not confirm any break toward a best-shot aggregator. SDI does not alter the core of deterrence. It is indeed a public good at the US level but not at the NATO level, where, it is one of the joint products of the alliance. We also investigate the lessons to be drawn for the current debates on ballistic defense.
