In the current environment of excess capacity in the arms industry in combination with a continuing trend of rising research and development costs in this sector, companies have become increasingly active in attempting to apply strategies of internationalization to arms-producing activities. At the same time, the end of the Cold War has led to a relaxation in government attitudes toward military technology transfers within a broad group of industrialized countries. This article discusses three basic forms of internationalization: exports, foreign direct investment, and international cooperation arrangements. Cross-border merger and acquisition activities are mainly concentrated in Western Europe, in particular in the aerospace and electronics sectors, but there are also examples of international restructuring outside these areas. International cooperation projects with the Russian arms industry have been limited in number and scope, due to their uncertain future prospects.

This article considers what could be a fundamental development in the defence industrial base (DIB) in the US, namely the increased involvement of commercial technology companies in military-related business. After an outline of the dynamics and longer-term post-Cold War developments in the international arms industry, it investigates recent changes in the Pentagon's attitudes and policies to gain access to new technologies from the commercial and academic sectors. It also considers the military, technological and political drivers that have led to these technologies being sought from commercial companies for military use. It then considers the recent engagement of the major commercial technology companies in activities for the military sector and what is driving them to take up military contracts. Finally, it considers what these developments imply for the dynamics of the arms industry and the relationships within the DIB and the military industrial complex (MIC).

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute's military expenditure database is the only long-run, consistent dataset on military expenditure with global coverage. Even though SIPRI's military expenditure data collection dates back almost to the organization's beginning in 1966, until recently, consistent data series for most countries have only been available as from 1988 onward. As this article discusses, the history of SIPRI's military expenditure project includes a number of breaks, the result of staff transitions and failures of record-keeping. As a result, reconstructing the data has been necessary on a number of occasions. The most recent such effort has now succeeded in extending the data backward from 1988 for the great majority of countries—in most cases at least to the 1960s, and for some countries as far back as 1959. This article sets out this history of advances, setbacks, and reconstructions and the methodologies used. In particular, the results of the latest reconstruction effort are presented, and thoughts for future developments laid out.

"Als erster sprach US-Präsident Eisenhower von einem militärisch-industriellen Komplex (MIK). 1962 zeigte er eine historische Besonderheit auf: den Aufbau eines großen militärischen Establishments und einer wehrtechnischen Industrie, beide auf Dauer miteinander verbunden. Er fand es höchst bedenklich, dass diese gesellschaftlichen Kräfte ohne jede Befugnis enormen Einfluss ausübten. Der folgende Beitrag untersucht, wie sich das Wesen des MIK im Laufe der Jahrzehnte geändert hat und inwieweit es eine Kontinuität der alten Machtstrukturen und des MIK gibt." (Autorenreferat)
