SIPRI is based in Stockholm with presences in Beijing and Washington, DC and well-established, on-the-ground partnerships and operational networks across the globe. The staff of SIPRI is international and the working language is English. In recent years SIPRI has expanded its staff and budget while building a dynamic research and outreach agenda that reflects the fast-changing international security order and a growing concern for security and development both within and between countries.
The current SIPRI Programme on Military Expenditure has studied developments in world military expenditure since 1967. Military expenditure is an indicator of the economic resources devoted to military purposes. The programme monitors and analyses trends in military expenditure over time, looking at their economic, political and security drivers and their implications for global peace, security and development. The current SIPRI database on military expenditure covers 172 countries and contains consistent data for the period since 1988. Data for the most recent 10-year period are published annually in the SIPRI Yearbook. Data from 1988 is available in the SIPRI military expenditure database on-line. SIPRI provides the only long-term, historically consistent series of military expenditure data with global coverage available today.
Looking ahead, SIPRI wishes to study in more detail government expenditure on security in general, building on our successful work on military expenditure. We also wish to strengthen our analytical capacity to work on security and development and how we communicate and share our data and research findings.
The position of Programme Director Military and Security Expenditure is a very senior position within SIPRI, for which we seek an outstanding and innovative scholar with an established international reputation.
