Abstract

L'objet de cet article est d'approfondir la question de la definition de la solvabilite de l'Etat. A la question, jusqu'ou l'Etat peut-il s'endetter ? Nous répondons que l'endettement public acceptable, ne conduisant pas à la faillite, est celui qui reste compatible avec un fonctionnement effectif de l'economie. Nous considerons d'abord la situation ou l'Etat choisit librement le montant des impots (forfaitaires). Il n'y a alors aucune restriction sur la dette. En particulier, aucune contrainte budgetaire intertemporelle ne pese sur la politique de l'Etat.
