The value of security and national defence
Jürgen Meyerhoff (Berlin School of Economics and Law, BCEE)

To assess preferences for measures that strengthen security and defense as a public good, discrete choice experiments are a promising approach. For Germany, such a survey-based experiment reveals a strong preference for the installation of a European air defense system, but also for an increase in the troop size of the German military by 25% as well as the creation of a European army.

This is an opportunity to learn and discuss best practices and real time data quality alerting and how choice models are often the first line of defence.
