總體經濟變數與國防支出對政府外債的影響-開發中國家的Panel分析

Macroeconomic Variables, Defense Expenditures and Government External Debt in Developing Countries: A Panel Analysis

摘要


有關國防支出的研究,先前的研究大多著重於國防支出對經濟成長的影響。近期有些研究開始注意到國防支出的增加是否會使得政府外債惡化。此些研究均以單一國家為樣本且未考量其他總體經濟變數。由於開發中國家目前共同面臨的現象是政府對外負債飆升和國防支出持續成長,本研究以多個開發中國家為樣本探討國防支出對於政府外債的影響,並同時考量多個總體經濟變數對於政府外債的影響。本研究蒐集32個開發中國家1988-2009年的22年資料,採用Panel data分析。研究發現,開發中國家的國防支出增加將正向的影響政府的外債,但是高所得國家的國防支出會減少國防支出對於政府外外債的正向影響。

並列摘要


Previous studies focus on the impact of defense expenditures on economic growth. Recently some studies have begun to evaluate whether defense expenditures will worsen government external debt. These studies observe single country and do not consider other macroeconomic variables.Since developing countries are facing the same phenomenon of rising external liabilities and increasing defense expenditures, this research survey many developing countries and consider the impacts of macroeconomic variables on government external debt.The research sample includes 32 developing countries covering 22 years data, from 1988 to 2009, and panel data analysis is adopted. Empirical results supports that defense expenditures positively affect the increase of government external debt, but less positive effect on government external debt in high income countries.
