Abstract

This study investigates the causal linkages between military spending and economic growth in OPEC selected countries (i. e. Algeria, Angola, Nigeria, Venezuela, Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Ecuador) by focusing on country-specific analysis for the period 1995– 2012. For this purpose, the Panel Causality Testing approach, a method developed by Emirmahmutoglu and Kose (2011) based on the vector autoregressive (VAR) model and Wald tests with the country specific bootstrap critical values, is applied. This test takes into account cross dependency and heterogeneity among the members of the panel as well as co-integration between variables. The results confirm the growth-military spending hypothesis for Algeria, Nigeria, Iran and Kuwait and verify the Neutrality Hypothesisfor Angola, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia and Ecuador. Also, the growth-military spending hypothesis for the total panel is confirmed.
