We find that fiscal policies are often pro-cyclical. We test possible explanations using comparative statistics for country-year observations with pro- and counter-cyclical policies. Our evidence suggests that fiscal rules and institutional quality are not related to the prevalence of pro-cyclicality. Likewise, several political-economy arguments suggested for explaining pro-cyclical fiscal policies do not receive strong support. However, poor access to finance makes fiscal policies more pro-cyclical.

This applies not only to political relations but also to transnational attachment, a positive and solidary mutual attitude between the citizens of two countries, which is mainly based on social capital and trust. In particular border areas can benefit enormously when people have a bond with their neighboring country and its inhabitants. Due to their geographic proximity and historically shaped identity, border regions have a high potential for increased economic and social exchange. While empirical work on these characteristics of specific border areas is scarce, this article presents a novel approach which applies the concept of transnational social capital taking the French–German border area as an example. The representative study is based on telephone interviews, which were conducted in the border area and in regions within the two countries as a control for country-level effects. We find strong evidence for border region attachment in form of higher levels of social capital and trust in the border area. Our findings have important implications for borderland economies in general and in particular for cross-border resilience with regard to prevailing risks like upcoming nationalism and disasters such as the Covid-19 pandemic.","PeriodicalId":51748,"journal":{"name":"Cesifo Economic Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138504596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was the Gallup democracy, which launched the political moves toward the membership. In both countries, the majority of people turned to favor the membership within 2–3 months. Finland activated first. Sweden was fast in catching up with the Finnish process. The theory of option pricing is employed to analyze the optimal timing of exercising the option when the uncertainty regarding the value of the membership is rapidly diluting. The Turkish intervention in the membership process after the membership applications of Finland and Sweden were delivered suggests a bargaining phase once the application is delivered. Finally, the effects of the Gallup surveys on the political equilibrium are analyzed in a voter–politician model (JEL codes: D72, D74, and H56).","PeriodicalId":51748,"journal":{"name":"Cesifo Economic Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44162245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This reform (referred to as tax reform) is particularly important given the ongoing unavoidable trade liberalization that sooner or later further erode international trade revenue. Using an unbalanced panel dataset of 127 countries over the period 1980–2019, and the two-step system generalized method of moments, the present article investigates the public debt effect of this tax reform. The empirical analysis has shown that a greater extent of tax reform helps to reduce public debt, with the magnitude of this negative effect being larger in countries with a high share of non-resource tax revenue in public revenue. In addition, the public debt reduction effect of tax reform is larger, the greater is countries’ share of international trade tax revenue in non-resource tax revenue. This analysis has important policy implications.

I employ a difference in differences strategy to identify the voter reaction against the sudden inflow of Syrian refugees to Turkey and use unique data provided by Turk Telecom to proxy natives’ refugee exposure. Data coming from mobile phone usage track the mobility of refugees throughout the year and enables the construction of refugee exposure measures across small geographical areas. I show a small drop in the government party vote share that announced an ‘open door’ policy for refugees. Furthermore, there is evidence for the reaction heterogeneity based on the socio-economic development levels of refugee-hosting areas. While there is a null response in ethnically Kurdish and economically lagging East, a negative reaction is concentrated in socioeconomically more developed areas. Then, exploring the effects in rural and urban areas reveals an interesting divide in the refugee exposure patterns of hosting areas. While in rural areas, natives react against the refugee presence, in urban areas, they react when the mobility (visibility) increases. Anecdotal evidence might help to put findings in context. Manipulating the concerns of voters on Syrians’ receiving citizenship and demographic change might be regarded as two main strategies used by opposition parties. These strategies help convince the secular and conservative-nationalist voters in socioeconomically developed areas.

The main empirical results are: (i) the VAR coefficients and volatilities change more gradually than the contemporaneous coefficients over time; (ii) the volatility of MP shocks was higher under the pre-Inflation Targeting (IT) regime; (iii) a surprise increase in the interest rate produces gross domestic product (GDP) growth falls and reduces inflation in the long run; (iv) the interest rate reacts more quickly to aggregate supply shocks than to aggregate demand shocks; (v) MP shocks explain a high percentage of domestic variables behavior under the pre-IT regime but their contribution decreases under the IT regime. Overall, these results show that MP has contributed in Peru to lower macroeconomic volatility by (i) reducing average long-term inflation, (ii) increasing the response of GDP growth rate to interest rate, and (iii) by becoming more predictable.
