Notes sur l'économie de la guerre et de l'empire

James K. Galbraith

Innovations, 2005, vol. 21, issue 1, 9-19

Abstract: If empire and war are neglected topics in modern economics, they seem on examination a rich field, and no doubt one with renewed scholarly potential. The economics of war and empire touches on many of the grand themes of the discipline: the conditions under which there are gains from trade, growth theory, macroeconomic balance, costs and benefits, benefits and risks, and the structure of once for all games, especially where the pay-offs are of an asymmetric kind. And it can lead to an equally challenging analysis of the converse set of problems, having to do with the difficult system-building necessary for stable development, income convergence, and sustainable peace.
