Military expenditures are not only an important factor in ensuring peace and security, but also have controversial effects on the economic growth of countries. The extent of military expenditures to ensure peace is another dimension of these discussions. This study analyzes the relationship between the global peace index, GDP, number of military personnel and military expenditures of 18 countries in the Global Peace Index (GPI) for the period 2008-2022 is analyzed using panel data analysis. The results show that there is a positive relationship between the global peace index, GDP, number of military personnel and military expenditures. It is thought that the result that peace has a decreasing effect on military expenditures should be evaluated not only by countries' own dynamics but also by taking into account factors such as geographical location, armaments of neighboring countries and developments in the world.

Askeri harcamalar, barışın ve güvenliğin sağlanmasında oldukça önemli bir faktör olmasının yanı sıra ülkelerin ekonomik büyümeleri üzerinde tartışmalı etkilere sahiptir. Barışı sağlamada askeri harcamaların ne büyüklükte olması gerektiği de bu tartışmaların bir başka boyutunu oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Küresel Barış Endeksi (GPI)’de yer alan 18 ülkenin 2008-2022 yıllarını kapsayan verileri ile askeri harcamalarının, küresel barış endeksi, GSYH ve askeri personel sayılarıyla ilişkileri panel veri analiziyle incelenmiştir. Sonuçlar küresel barış endeksi, GSYH ve askeri personel sayısı ile askeri harcamalar arasında pozitif yönlü ilişkinin olduğunu göstermektedir. Barışın askeri harcamalar üzerinde azaltıcı bir etkisi olduğunu sonucunun ülkelerin sadece kendi dinamikleri ile değil coğrafi konum, komşu ülkelerin silahlanmaları ve dünya üzerindeki gelişmeler gibi faktörlerin de dikkate alınarak değerlendirilmesi gerektiği düşünülmektedir.
