The concept of a "peace dividend" assumes that the budget for defense spending will be at least partially redirected to social programmes and/or economic growth. The existence of a peace dividend in real economies remains unproven. Most economies, in contrast, undergo a recession after the end of a major conflict as the economy is forced to adjust and retool.
