Abstract

Los indicadores sobre la posición cíclica de una economía son de enorme importancia para la ejecución y el análisis de la política fiscal, porque es dicha posición la que condiciona su respuesta. Tanto en los trabajos académicos como en los organismos internacionales se identifica una recesión a partir de la posición cíclica de la economía según la brecha de producción o output-gap. Ahora bien, ¿es realmente el output-gap la variable sobre la cual toman sus decisiones fiscales los poderes públicos? o ¿será más bien la variación del PIB?. Este es un asunto pertinente por cuanto la intencionalidad estabilizadora de las decisiones adoptadas puede ser distinta si se basa en una u otra variable.
