Résumé anglais Causal Relations between Military Spending and its Macroeconomic Environment: Partial Tests for France and the United States, by Jean-François Jacques and Emmanuel Picavet. This article presents the results of Granger causality tests made in a multivariate context comprising military spending, the budget deficit and domestic product for France (1953-1989) and the United States (1947-1990). In the case of France, close dependency links are found between these variables. Conversely, military spending in the United States appears to stand somewhat apart from product fluctuations and the budget deficit. The introduction of an additional series (real interest rates) in no way challenges these conclusions.
