Disarmament Economic Conversion and Management of Peace
By Werner BaerScholars across several disciplines discuss possible negative economic and social consequences of international military disarmament, including unemployment associated with the conversion from a military industrial economy to a civilian complex, conversion costs, and the related hampered growth of research and development. The authors present techniques for managing sectoral and regional economic imbalances, and conclude that disarmament would ultimately release resources for foreign aid to close the gap between the developed and developing worlds.
