Abstract

Cet article étudie les dépenses des départements français en distinguant le budget social du budget non social. Les demandes de biens publics locaux, sociaux et non sociaux, émanent d’un électeur contribuable décisif. Ces demandes dépendent des prix fiscaux des biens publics et du revenu de l’électeur décisif. Les tests économétriques réalisés sur la période 1996-2006 donnent les estimations des différentes élasticités prix et revenu des demandes de biens publics sociaux et non sociaux des départements.
