Abstract

A tanulmány azt a kérdést vizsgálja, hogy az államba vetett bizalom hogyan befolyásolja a költségvetési egyensúly létrejöttét és fennmaradását. Fő tézise, hogy azokban az országokban, ahol alacsony a társadalomnak a politikai rendszerbe vetett bizalma, a költségvetés bevételi és kiadási oldala is hozzájárul a hiány kialakulásához: a bevételi oldalon a nagyobb az adócsalásra való hajlam, míg a kiadási oldalon a populista politikára való kísértés, valamint a strukturális reformokhoz szükséges konszenzus kialakításának nehézsége növeli az egyensúlytalanságot. A bizalom és a költségvetési egyensúly közti pozitív kapcsolatot a cikk egyrészt az eurózóna eddigi tapasztalatainak statisztikai elemzése, másrészt Svédország és Magyarország - az 1990-es évek közepén megtörtént - konszolidációjának kvalitatív összehasonlítása révén mutatja be. A bizalom és egyensúly kapcsolatának felismeréséből adódó fő következtetés, hogy alacsony bizalmi környezetben a tartósan kiegyensúlyozott költségvetés esélye csekély, és helyette a túlköltekezés-megszorítások ciklusainak váltakozása valószínűsíthető.
