"This book comparatively examines the preferences of four key arms-producing states
towards European joint armaments programmes. The European defence market is characterised
by a mixture of inter-state competition and European cooperation, and this work assesses
why countries sometimes decide to cooperate with their partners, while in other instances
they refrain from doing so. In order to shed light on this empirical puzzle, the book
focuses on state-defence industry relations in the four major European arms producers:
France, Germany, Italy and the UK. The main argument is that the public or private
governance of industrial suppliers and market size are the two decisive variables
that explain the simultaneous presence of cooperation and competition in European
defence procurement. Specifically, it argues that in public governance ecosystems,
arms industries are able to 'capture' the state's decision-making processes to their
own advantage. In private governance ecosystems, the state is relatively autonomous
from defence industry's influence and able to pursue larger macro-economic and military
benefits. Moreover, the strategy pursued by governments and defence firms is decisively
shaped by market size because of its importance in determining the relative costs
and benefits of collaborative arrangements. This book will be of much interest to
students of EU policy, defence studies, European politics and International Relations"
