Abstract

The fiscal theory of the price level makes a distinction between two kinds of policy-making regimes : a Ricardian and a non-Ricardian one. We analyse here the conditions under which these regimes can apply to different periods, some of them being troubled periods, in a given economy. The case of Lebanon, which has successively gone through periods of prosperity, war and reconstruction, offers a case study for the fiscal theory of the price level, and shows its empirical relevance.
