The Fiscal Response to External Finance in Africa : and Alternative Approach

Author Info

Geda, A

Abstract

In the macroeconomics of developing countries, the government's fiscal response to external finance is exclusively studied using an optimization framework. This approach not only is inherently inconsistent by diverges from the reality in developing countires in general and African economies in particular. This paper proposes an alternative decision making framework which is based on stylized facts in Africa.
