[fre] Choix entre la politique monétaire et la manipulation du taux de change pour rétablir le plein emploi et l'équilibre de la balance des paiements. . Lorsqu'un pays affronte simultanément un déséquilibre interne et externe, il est nécessaire de disposer de deux armes pour rétablir le plein emploi et l'équilibre de la balance des paiements. Si le Gouvernement dispose d'une information insuffisante, de sorte que le « policy mix » exact ne peut pas être déterminé, la méthode empirique est alors d'affecter chacun des outils à chacun des objectifs. L'affectation traditionnelle dans un système de taux de change fixes est la dévaluation ou la réévaluation pour atteindre l'équilibre externe et la politique monétaire (ou la politique budgétaire) pour le plein emploi. On peut montrer que sous certaines hypothèses concernant l'élasticité des mouvements de capitaux au taux d'intérêt, cette affectation doit être renversée. Ce résultat est conforme au principe de Mundell (principle of effective market classification). De plus, il convient de décider quelle arme doit être employée la première. Le modèle montre que l'ordre de priorité est déterminant quant à la vitesse de l'ajustement pour atteindre les équilibres simultanés. Il faut respecter la règle suivante : le premier instrument à employer est celui qui agit dans la bonne direction sur les deux objectifs. [eng] The alternative use of monetary policy and exchange rate change for pull employment and balance of payments equilibrium. . When a country faces simultaneously internal and external disequilibrium, one needs two weapons to go back to full employment and balance of payments equilibrium. If Government has incomplete information, so that the perfect policy mix cannot be determined, the empirical technique is to assign one weapon to each targef. The usual assignment in a fixed exchange rates System, is devaluation or revaluation to attain external equilibrium and monetary policy (or fiscal policy) for full employment. It can be shown that under special assumptions concerning the interest elasticity of capital movements, the assignment has to be reversed. The resuit is consistent with Mundell's " principle of effective market classification ".. Furthermore, one has to decide which weapon is to be used first. The model proves that order of priority is determinant as far as speed of adjustment to reach full equilibrium is concerned. One has to folio w the rule : the first instrument to be used is the one which works in the right direction on the two targets.
