Abstract

O objetivo deste trabalho é contribuir para o melhor entendimento dos efeitos da política fiscal na economia brasileira no período 1995-2008, a partir de uma análise com base em modelos autorregressivos vetoriais (VAR) que leve explicitamente em consideração o papel da dívida pública na determinação da política fiscal, conforme recomendado por Favero e Giavazzi (2007). De acordo com os resultados obtidos, a consideração explícita do papel da dívida pública na evolução das variáveis fiscais parece realmente fazer diferença na estimação dos efeitos de choques fiscais sobre o nível de atividade; em particular, é provável que os efeitos dos choques fiscais estimados a partir de modelos que omitam a dívida pública estejam superestimados. In this paper we investigate the real effects of fiscal policy in Brazil during the 1995-2008 period by estimating a VAR model that explicitly takes into consideration the role of public debt in the determination of fiscal variables, as recommended by Favero and Giavazzi (2007). According to our results, it really makes a difference whether one takes into account the public debt`s role in the fiscal policy process; more specifically, models that omit the public debt are likely to overestimate the real effects of fiscal policy shocks. i.
