A similar effect can be obtained by increasing the actual participation rate. In this paper, we propose the introduction of a deficit-financed conditional minimum income (CMI) to discouraged people which are outside the labor force. By stimulating participation, this measure would bring about an upward revision of Italy’s potential output, and this in turn will contribute to generate a greater fiscal stance. We empirically assess the reliability of this measure by using both comparative statics and empirical estimations carried out via the simulation procedure used by the Output Gaps Working Group of the European Commission. Assuming one million newcomers in the labor force, our findings indicate that the measure would have produced a greater fiscal space of approximately €19 billion in 2016 and €12 billion in 2017. We also forecast the impact of the introduction of the deficit-financed CMI on real GDP and public finance indicators. We finally discuss the feasibility and the main criticisms of the proposal.","PeriodicalId":47197,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Post Keynesian Economics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01603477.2021.1913752","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44071226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This argument undergirds the policy recommendations made by the mainstream literature on Fiscal Federalism. I argue that these accounts are predicated on a misunderstanding of what it means to be an agent with respect to one’s budget over the business cycle. Basic corporate finance theory teaches us that in order to have control over the relative movement of income and expenditure in the current period, one must be able to design one’s own capital structure. US State governments are institutionally and constitutionally prevented from designing their own capital structures, and as such, cannot be judged to have budgetary agency across the business cycle. I show that the moral hazard problem presented in the fiscal finance literature is ill-posed, and obscures a second, more important problem of moral hazard. Namely, that politicians at the federal level reap the political rewards of pursuing austerity at the state level while remaining insulated from any political, economic, or social costs or responsibility. This second moral hazard problem admits of a simple solution: trigger-based fiscal aid to state governments.","PeriodicalId":47197,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Post Keynesian Economics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01603477.2021.1872031","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42113331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Policy responses to recent cyclical downturns have included a variety of policies to encourage greater spending at the state and local level, including efforts to lower borrowing costs for these governments, but the effectiveness of these policies remains unclear. To examine the effectiveness of state-local capital spending as a countercyclical tool, I use a unique data set consisting of open-ended interviews with state and local budget officers and a survey of state governments. I find that at present, there are significant barriers preventing countercyclical state-local capital spending. First, interventions to stimulate capital spending via easing financing conditions are likely limited by two factors: some governments use minimal amounts of borrowing to finance capital spending, and for governments that do rely primarily on borrowing, capital spending appears insensitive to interest rates. Second, state and local capital spending decisions involve substantial lags, making it a poor vehicle for countercyclical fiscal policy even in the absence of financing constraints. Third, state-local budget officials do not view capital spending as a tool for economic stabilization.","PeriodicalId":47197,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Post Keynesian Economics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01603477.2021.1875246","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41885916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In that paper the dynamics of an economy from the ultra-short to the short period inside a Post-Keynesian perspective were studied questioning the general shared assumption of equilibrium between aggregate demand and aggregate supply in the short and long run Kaleckian models. This paper responds to some unresolved issues of the model proposed there considering a proper analysis of the Kaleckian investment function and a more realistic scenario with the presence of the government sector. Moreover, even if that model tried to deal with firms’ expectations in producing goods, some values boundaries were exogenously established. Here, those boundaries are questioned again. In fact, the novelty of this work is that an active role of the government can actually influence both the values of the expectations and their respective boundaries. It is argued that is particularly the case when the government is engaged in policies which aim is to support and secure a high level of economic activity and to smooth and steer the cycles phases toward a sustainable development path. Particularly we focus on the role of different fiscal policies aimed at obtaining such goals.","PeriodicalId":47197,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Post Keynesian Economics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01603477.2020.1835495","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44754374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
