Abstract: Economic analyses of peace and war are controversial. Economic theories on the violence of economic factors are heterogeneous. The economy is a factor and an instrument of war, but with the process of globalisation, many economists consider that economic knowledge becomes a factor of peace. It is therefore interesting to analyse the influence of economic powers of nations on the effects of domination and global conflicts, the influence of economic variables on human security, the determinants of military expenditure, the economic impact of terrorism, the economic reorganisation of the military sector, the industrial establishment of defence in Russia, the evolution and future of European defence companies, peacekeeping operations, humanitarian actions and sustainable development, economic intelligence, the economic consequences of the environment, and the approach to conflicts by race and gender.
