| Summary: | 碩士 === 中原大學 === 企業管理研究所 === 100 === Along With the economic globalization and liberalization in the international community, the economic growth has became the ultimate goal for all nations, while the importance of national defense is overlooked. Given the fact that the budget of national defense can not grow with the economic growth, the efficiency and productivity of the national defense budget have gained the attention of the authorities concerned. This research is conducted with the methodology of Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA), aiming to measure the efficiency of national defense budget in the world from 1986 to 2006. The fluctuation of productivity under different circumstances is also measured by the methodology of Malmquist Index(MI)。In terms of the overall effiency of the national defense budget, the countries with better efficiency are characterized by their lower Gross Nation Income(GNI), and lower percentage of the navy and air force. The main reasons are as follows.First, the strength of the national economy led the development of the defense force. Second, the price levels and force structure of the main factors that affect the efficiency of the defense budget.Third,defense budget increment.Forth,where a high national income and Territorial patterns is ocean power or navy and air force formation structure , Countries have demonstrated that productivity performance is more stableeffect.Finally, Communist China's defense budget growth is an inevitable trend. As a results, we provide a priority to strengthen the economy, accelerate defense transformation, and to confirm the country's overall strategic goals, pay attention to the efficiency of resource allocation, the introduction of management methods to enhance economic efficiency, to increase the military scale of investment credits recommendations. And by this study, the Department of Defense and research institutions to consider the establishment of an appropriate measure of output indicators of combat power, by DEA and the Malmquist index analysis of the efficiency of the national defense budget, to do can be the strategic objectives and military decision-making
