.............. enhances civil-military integration which reduces the burden of defence expenditure by promoting technological sharing, supply chains, technologies and dual use technologies.

  • A.World system theory
  • B.Modernisation theory
  • C.Linear stages growth
  • D.Globalisation

Answer: D

The answer is Globalisation.

Globalisation integrates production across borders through global supply chains and the spread of technology. In defence it encourages civil-military integration: the armed forces buy from commercial suppliers and use dual-use technologies such as electronics, computing and materials developed for civilian markets, so the cost of developing them is shared and the burden of defence spending falls.

World-systems theory, modernisation theory and Rostow's linear stages of growth are theories of development and underdevelopment; they do not describe this sharing of technology and supply chains between the civil and military sectors.
