European defense industrial policy and the United Kingdom's defense industrial base

Keith Hartley

Economics of Peace and Security Journal, 2008, vol. 3, issue 1, 11-20

Abstract: This article addresses the relationship between European and U.K. defense industrial policy. It considers recent initiatives to create a European Defense Equipment Market and the U.K.’s Defense Industrial Strategy. The European and U.K. defense industries are evaluated and some of the future policy choices are assessed. The future defense firm will be different and there will be conflicts between efforts to open up national defense markets and the desire to maintain national defense industries.
