Background: This article takes a look at the technical efficiency of 53 A-share listed companies of Chinese military industrial enterprises in the '10 Major Military-industrial Groups' based on the random Frontier B95 model and the panel data of listed companies from 2010 to 2015.Objectives: The research put forward five influencing factors, namely ownership structure, asset turnover, enterprise size, staff education and regional differences.Method: The article proposed five hypotheses to measure the technical efficiency of the military and civilian enterprises.Results: The results showed a gradual increase in the technical efficiency of sampled military industrial enterprises, even though the overall results were low with a decreasing scale income. There was a positive correlation between ownership concentration and the technical efficiency of military industrial enterprises, but not significant. However, the proportion of state-owned large shareholders and the technical efficiency of military industrial enterprises had a negative correlation and were not significant. Asset turnover ratio, firm size, employee education level and regional differences correlated positively with the technical efficiency of military industrial enterprises, and their influence was seen to be very important.Conclusion: The conclusion of the study provides an empirical basis for further studies enhancing the technical efficiency of military industrial enterprises in China.

This brief highlights key points on three Chinese government and military organizations involved in managing defense science, technology, and industry: 1) the State Council's State Administration for Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense (SASTIND); 2) the General Armament Department (GAD) of the People's Liberation Army; and 3) the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's Civil–Military Integration Promotion Department (CMIPD). This brief calls attention to important ongoing organizational reforms in Chinese defense science, technology and industry by discussing 1) the post-2008 division of responsibilities between SASTIND and CMIPD; 2) GAD's role in the defense industries and PLA defense research; and 3) civil–military integration (CMI) in the Chinese defense science, technology and industry system.

2021 Spring. ; Includes bibliographical references. ; Simulations show that recipient nations are directly impacted by U.S. foreign assistance spending (in the form of U.S. economic and military aid) in a manner similar to transfer payments, spurring growth, and easing liquidity constraints. U.S. foreign assistance spending is often accompanied by U.S. politico-military integration, which is defined by the presence of the: (1) receipt of U.S. economic aid, (2) receipt of U.S. military aid, and (3) integration into the U.S. security apparatus through hosting U.S. troops and/or bases or through military or political treaties. Using a new comprehensive RAND database of all U.S. security-related agreements since 1955, I create a new database showing which country-years have active (a) U.S. military treaties (b) U.S. political treaties. Also new is the inclusion of David Vine's Base Nation database, detailing the location and existence of all recognized, unrecognized, and U.S.-funded bases. Lastly, I update another of RAND's databases, one detailing U.S. troop deployment abroad to include the most recent years. Empirical analysis shows a more complicated set of results than those derived in the simulations. Using deep lags and controlling for politico-military integration and U.S. military aid, I find limited evidence that U.S. economic aid is effective in development. This associated positive impact of U.S. economic aid is never large enough to overcome the associated negative impact of U.S. military aid and U.S. politico-military integration. While U.S. political treaties show a slight impact on economic growth, U.S. military aid, U.S. military bases, and U.S. military treaties overwhelm any positive impact on growth and FDI, with a resulting net effect that is significantly negative for the recipient.
