Abstract

Resumen: En el marco de un modelo de Ciclos Económicos Reales -CER-, estetrabajo pretende identificar los beneficios que brinda una política fiscal estable, que se desarrolle en forma contracíclica y cuyos objetivos no se encuentren ligados a metas diferentes a las relacionadas con la estabilidad macroeconómica. El estudio contempla el cálculo y análisis de diferentes indicadores y elasticidades y una evaluación empírica para un conjunto de países de América Latina. A partir del análisis, se concluye que, aquellos países en los cuales se presentó un ahorro público en los anos de buen crecimiento económico, son a su vez, los que tienen un mayor margen de acción para la política fiscal y en los que, también, el sector productivo logra asimilar en forma más eficaz las medidas instrumentadas por los gobiernos en tiempos de crisis. Adicionalmente, es el gasto de capital (infraestructura) un mecanismo idóneo para impulsar el crecimiento económicoen fases de bajo crecimiento.
