Summary/Abstract: This essay is to provide a survey on the allocation of resources to the national security, within a complicated and an unstable environment (national and international actors, incomplete data and limited resources). The paper focus, first, on the definition of the term national security and a clarification of its fields that can closely affect the allocation of resources and the implemented process to meet with fixed objectives and goals. The paper introduces, also, the way to properly allocate resources and how it is related to the budgeting system with an eye kept on policymakers struggling regarding the priorities of each field. The presentation takes as case study, the 2 percent of the GDP decision made by North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies, in Wales Summit in 2014, to be allocated to the military development.
