Download or read book State-local Government Spending, Macroeconomic Fiscal Policy, and the Business Cycle written by Amanda Page-Hoongrajok and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation investigates state and local government budget behavior over the business cycle with the aim of improving the design and implementation of fiscal policy. It examines how the various components of state-local government budgets have behaved historically and seeks to understand how on-the-ground, practical, and political issues impact state and local government's ability to engage in countercyclical spending. The first chapter of this dissertation motivates the need to account for state and local government budgets in macroeconomic fiscal policy. It shows that the contemporary macroeconomic fiscal policy literature overlooks the role of state and local government budgets. I argue that it is critical to fill this gap because of the significant impact state and local government budgets can have on overall fiscal policy. Chapter 2 investigates the behavior of state and local government budgets over business cycles from 1954 to 2015. It classifies each component of state and local government budgets as pro-cyclical, countercyclical, or non-cyclical. This analysis helps us see clearly which components of state-local government budgets have historically supported countercyclical fiscal policy and which have hindered it. Chapter 3 examines the effectiveness of state-local government capital spending as a countercyclical tool. Capital spending has the most potential for countercyclical purposes. This chapter identifies institutional and on-the-ground barriers to using capital spending for countercyclical purposes. Chapter 4 analyzes the role of state and local government spending in the most recent economic recovery from 2010 to 2015. State and local government spending has historically contributed to federal government recovery efforts. However, in the 2010 recovery, state and local government spending became a drag. Analyzing the state-local government slowdown during the 2010 recovery can help us identify the key factors that turned state-local government spending from a supportive source to a barrier. Chapter 5 develops policy proposals for state and local government countercyclical spending taking into account all the lessons from the previous chapters. I argue that the most promising areas for policy change are: 1) expanding federal government support; 2) reforming rainy day funds; 3) utilizing the capital budget; 4) loosening financial constraints; and 5) addressing political constraints.

Download or read book The American Business Cycle written by Robert J. Gordon and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 882 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades the American economy has experienced the worst peace-time inflation in its history and the highest unemployment rate since the Great Depression. These circumstances have prompted renewed interest in the concept of business cycles, which Joseph Schumpeter suggested are "like the beat of the heart, of the essence of the organism that displays them." In The American Business Cycle, some of the most prominent macroeconomics in the United States focuses on the questions, To what extent are business cycles propelled by external shocks? How have post-1946 cycles differed from earlier cycles? And, what are the major factors that contribute to business cycles? They extend their investigation in some areas as far back as 1875 to afford a deeper understanding of both economic history and the most recent economic fluctuations. Seven papers address specific aspects of economic activity: consumption, investment, inventory change, fiscal policy, monetary behavior, open economy, and the labor market. Five papers focus on aggregate economic activity. In a number of cases, the papers present findings that challenge widely accepted models and assumptions. In addition to its substantive findings, The American Business Cycle includes an appendix containing both the first published history of the NBER business-cycle dating chronology and many previously unpublished historical data series.

Download or read book Fiscal Stimulus Through State and Local Governments written by Laura Judith Feiveson and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State and local governments in the United States make up more than half of total government consumption and investment and almost 90 percent of total government employment. Despite these facts, the debates surrounding fiscal policy during business cycles have usually been limited to the actions of the federal government. This is in large part due to two reasons. First, there are 50 state governments and more than 60,000 local governments, making coordinated responses very difficult. Second, because state and local governments are bound by balanced budget rules, their hands are tied, to some degree, in their ability to enact countercyclical spending policies. However, their dramatic expenditure and employment cuts in the recent recession have made it increasingly clear how much their actions affect the economy as a whole and have motivated new research surrounding their budget mechanisms and the broader impacts of their fiscal policy. This dissertation consists of three chapters, each seeking to illuminate a specific issue within this area of research. In the first chapter, I examine how the impact of federal intergovernmental grants on local economies may be mediated by public sector unions. In the second chapter, I explore the impact of revenue structure on city government revenue and expenditure fluctuations. Finally, the third chapter (co-authored with Gabriel Chodorow- Reich, Zachary Liscow, and William Woolston) estimates the fiscal multiplier associated with federal transfers to state governments in the recent recession.

Download or read book Hysteresis and Business Cycles written by Ms.Valerie Cerra and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2020-05-29 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, economic growth and business cycles have been treated independently. However, the dependence of GDP levels on its history of shocks, what economists refer to as “hysteresis,” argues for unifying the analysis of growth and cycles. In this paper, we review the recent empirical and theoretical literature that motivate this paradigm shift. The renewed interest in hysteresis has been sparked by the persistence of the Global Financial Crisis and fears of a slow recovery from the Covid-19 crisis. The findings of the recent literature have far-reaching conceptual and policy implications. In recessions, monetary and fiscal policies need to be more active to avoid the permanent scars of a downturn. And in good times, running a high-pressure economy could have permanent positive effects.

This book was released on 2002-12 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews the theoretical and empirical literature on the effectiveness of fiscal policy. The focus is on the size of fiscal multipliers, and on the possibility that multipliers can turn negative (i.e., that fiscal contractions can be expansionary). The paper concludes that fiscal multipliers are overwhelmingly positive but small. However, there is some evidence of negative fiscal multipliers.

Download or read book The Macroeconomic Effects of Public Investment written by Mr.Abdul Abiad and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-05-04 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides new evidence of the macroeconomic effects of public investment in advanced economies. Using public investment forecast errors to identify the causal effect of government investment in a sample of 17 OECD economies since 1985 and model simulations, the paper finds that increased public investment raises output, both in the short term and in the long term, crowds in private investment, and reduces unemployment. Several factors shape the macroeconomic effects of public investment. When there is economic slack and monetary accommodation, demand effects are stronger, and the public-debt-to-GDP ratio may actually decline. Public investment is also more effective in boosting output in countries with higher public investment efficiency and when it is financed by issuing debt.
