Abstract
Este trabajo efectúa un recorrido por las recientes investigaciones que han
medido el impacto económico de las intervenciones fiscales de tipo discrecional,
lo que académicamente es conocido como los multiplicadores. Incidimos
especialmente en los temas metodológicos y utilizamos un número amplio de
perspectivas para la interpretación de las estimaciones. Los resultados muestran
una destacada variedad de estimaciones, dependientes de las premisas
de los trabajos y de las condiciones de cada país, así como la existencia de un
marco teórico razonable bajo el cual la política fiscal discrecional tiene efectos
positivos sobre los componentes privados de la demanda agregada.
This paper reviews the recent investigations aimed to quantifying the economic impact of discretionary fiscal policy, what is known as fiscal multipliers. Specially, we stress the methodological topics and use several perspectives to assess the outcomes. Covered works show a wide variety of estimations, depending mostly on the hypothesis used and the conditions of each country. On the other hand, we find a set of plausible conditions that provide positive effects of discretionary fiscal policy on private components of aggregate demand.
