Fuelled by the impact of the war in Ukraine and the growing tensions in the Indo-Pacific (currently the centre of gravity of the international agenda, being the region where the strategic competition between the United States and China is most visible),\u00a0global military spending has continued to rise\u00a0for the eighth year in a row. The\u00a0data recently published\u00a0by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) confirms that an all-time record of US$2.24 trillion was reached in 2022, which represents a 3.7 per cent increase in real terms (6.5 per cent in nominal terms) on the previous year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seen from a traditional state security perspective \u2013 which generally assumes that more weapons means more security \u2013 this could be interpreted as good news, as it implies that having more resources to protect one\u2019s own interests and a greater power of deterrence against potential enemies. But immediately, when looking at the data on the number of state conflicts registered so far in the 21st century, based on data from Uppsala University\u2019s renowned conflict programme, we see that while in 2001 there were 33 active conflicts in various parts of the world, 20 years later the number had risen to 54. And while recognising that violence is a complex phenomenon, it seems elementary to conclude that, viewed on both a global and a local scale, the idea that more weapons means more security does not hold true.<\/p>\n\n\n
