Abstract

Résumé : L’hypothèse de déficits jumeaux stipule qu’il existe une relation positive entre les déficits extérieur et budgétaire engendrée suite aux changements de dépenses publiques ou de taxes. La validité de cette hypothèse implique que les problèmes liés aux solvabilités du pays et du gouvernement peuvent être conjointement résolus à partir d’un seul instrument fiscal, soit les dépenses publiques, ou encore, les taxes. Cet article décrit les principaux résultats empiriques relativement à la validité de l’hypothèse de déficits jumeaux et présente les prédictions de différents modèles économiques quant à la relation entre les déficits extérieur et budgétaire.
