Abstract

Az európai Gazdasági és Monetáris Unió harmadik szakaszának beindításával a részt vevő országok lemondtak monetáris és árfolyam-politikájuk irányításáról. Nem így a fiskálisról, amely a pénzügypolitika egyetlen területeként maradt a nemzeti hatóságok kezében. A tagok mindegyike jelentős jövedelemcentralizációt hajt végre, tehát nem mindegy, hogy ki hogyan tekint a költségvetési politikára. A monetáris unió stabilitását semmi esetre sem veszélyeztetheti a fiskális politika autonómiája. Garantálhatja ezt a tagok azon jól felfogott érdeke, amely szerint nem kompetitív módon egymás rovására alakítanák költségvetési politikájukat, hanem azon szabályok alapján, amelyeket a többi között a maastrichti szerződés az Európai Unióról, valamint a Stabilitási és Növekedési Egyezmény tartalmaznak. Írásunkban e két megállapodás elemzése során igyekszünk megvilágítani a nemzeti gazdaságpolitikák konzisztenciájának szükségességét, az egyes országok eladósodottságának következményeit, a fiskális politika terén folytatandó együttműködés lehetőségét, a túlzott mértékű deficiteljárás hatásosságát és a közös költségvetés jövőjét. Ezek tárgyalásában segít bennünket a tagok költségvetési pozícióinak rövid áttekintése, illetve az átalakítások lehetséges irányainak bemutatása.
