中国财政赤字与经济增长之间的经验研究

分析了1978~2006年中国财政赤字和国内生产总值的变化趋势,运用协整理论和G ranger因果关系检验理论,就中国财政赤字的经济带动效应进行了经验分析。结论表明,1986~2006年、1982~2006年,中国财政赤字带动了经济发展,财政赤字每增加1单位,国内生产总值将发生0.69、0.70单位的增量变化。从因果关系检验来看,财政赤字与国内生产总值之间有显著的单向因果关系,国内生产总值的增长是财政赤字增加的原因。     

建立突发性公共事务财政投入体系的对策研究

突发性公共事务的财政投入体系是防范和化解公共事务危害的最后一道防线。针对我国公共财政的实际情况,建立突发性公共事务财政投入体系的对策应包括:实现突发性公共事务财政投入形式的多样化及预备费的基金式管理,加大事前预防性财政投入的比例,编制突发性公共事务预算,并遵循预算编制和执行的原则,以实现提高我国政府管理突发性公共事务水平的目标。     

财政分权与绩效管理的相互关系研究

财政分权和绩效管理是目前世界上公共经济领域两个热门的改革话题。本文在梳理已有研究成果的基础上,从规范分析和实证分析两方面研究了财政分权与绩效管理之间相互促进、协调发展的关系,并提出应明确各级政府职能,深化我国财政分权,推进绩效管理的建设。     

一项关于价格水平决定的财政理论的实证研究

本文遵循Sala的五变量VAR方法发现,在绝大部分时间里,实际利率对一个标准差的实际税收正向冲击的反应为正,这就为价格水平决定的财政理论提供了来自中国的经验证据的支持。除此之外,与很多学者一样,本文还发现了实际税收冲击的非凯恩斯效应。

Fiscal Stimulus in Times of High Debt: Reconsidering Multipliers and Twin Deficits

We investigate the impact of fiscal stimuli at different levels of the government debt‐to‐GDP ratio for a sample of 17 European countries from 1970 to 2010. This is implemented in an interacted panel VAR framework in which all coefficient parameters are allowed to change continuously with the debt‐to‐GDP ratio. We find that responses to government spending shocks exhibit strong nonlinear behavior. While the overall cumulative effect of a spending shock on real GDP is positive and significant at moderate debt‐to‐GDP ratios, this effect turns negative as the ratio increases. The total cumulative effect on the trade balance as a share of GDP is negative at first but switches sign at higher levels of debt. Consequently, depending on the degree of public indebtedness, our results accommodate long‐run fiscal multipliers that are greater and smaller than one or even negative as well as twin deficit and twin divergence behavior within one sample and time period. From a policy perspective, these results lend additional support to increased prudence at high public debt ratios because the effectiveness of fiscal stimuli to boost economic activity or resolve external imbalances may not be guaranteed.     

Fiscal Policy in a Currency Union at the Zero Lower Bound

This paper constructs a two‐country core–periphery New Keynesian model of a currency union to address the interaction between the objectives of regionally directed fiscal policy constrained by a single currency and the aggregate use of fiscal policy in face of the zero lower bound (ZLB) on policy interest rates. We identify an optimal path of aggregate and relative fiscal policy responses to a negative region‐specific demand shock. Our results show that (i) in a monetary union, the optimal policy response to an asymmetric reduction in demand concentrated in the periphery always entails a relative shift of fiscal expenditure toward the worse‐affected regions, (ii) though no aggregate fiscal response is required outside the ZLB, and (iii) optimal union‐wide fiscal policy is expansionary at the ZLB. Therefore, optimal policy always entails an expansion in the periphery at the ZLB, but the optimal fiscal response in the core regions can be either expansionary or contractionary depending on the parameters of the model. However, (iv) fiscal expansion in the core is warranted if the periphery cannot implement an expansion due to constraints on public spending.
