摘要
Economic theory has yet to come up with a general guidance regarding the dynamic effects and welfare implications of shocks to Public spending. With the aim to provide a theoretical benchmark. we analyse if a rise in private consumption following an exogenous rise in government spending is a feature of the economy under optimal stabilization in a standard New Keynesian setting augmented for the presence of liquidity-constraitied agents and non-separable preferences. Our results provide little evidence in Support of a crowding-in effect under 'timelessly optimal' policy. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
