The Research and Documentation Centre (WODC) in the Netherlands commissioned RAND Europe to explore the relationship between the economy and national security. The study conceptually investigated the connections between the economy and national security, before applying the ensuing perspectives to the characteristics and performance of both the Dutch economy and its national security.

This report summarises the findings from the study, and draws on a review of academic literature and national policy documentation, as well as information solicited through expert interviews. In doing so, we present a historical perspective of scholarly thinking about national security and the interconnectedness between the economy and security. The framework and supporting analysis contained within this report present a structured method for understanding the strategic-level relationships between the economy and national security.
