Abstract

A 2010-es évektől indulóan populista fordulat zajlott le Kelet- Közép-Európa országaiban, amelynek eredményeképpen a populista erők a végrehajtó hatalom szintjén is megjelentek. A populista kormányzást a szakirodalom a költségvetési korlátot figyelmen kívül hagyó, felelőtlen költségvetési politikával, továbbá a társadalmat tudatosan megosztó jövedelem-újraelosztó államháztartási politikával azonosítja. A 2010 és 2022 közötti időszakot átfogó vizsgálatunk azt mutatta, hogy a régió populista kormányai - általánosságban - nem éltek a deficitfinanszírozás és az államadósság-generálás lehetőségével, nem voltak kevésbé fegyelmezettek, mint nem populista társaik. A kormányra került populista pártok ugyanakkor tudatosan nyúltak a jövedelem-újraelosztás eszközéhez az államháztartás kiadási oldalán. Ám az egyes populista kormányok preferenciái akár jelentős mértékben is eltérhettek egymástól, vagyis nem lehet egyértelműen azonosítani valamifajta populista költségvetési programot a régióban.
