Abstract

[eng] Is it Really a Good Idea to Reduce Global Imbalances in Times of Crisis ? . Is it really a good idea to consider that reduction of global imbalances is a priority, as proposed by the participants at the G20 Finance in Washington on 13 and 14 April 2011, adopting a set of indicative guidelines to address major and persistently large imbalances ? To answer, several questions must be addressed. What was the role of global imbalances in the rise of financial fragility before the crisis ? What are the theoretical foundations of such a limiting external surpluses and deficits ? Is it an intrinsic objective of economic policy, or rather an intermediate target in the way to more coordination in economic policies and exchange-rate dynamics ? And above all, is it appropriate in times of crisis ? . Classification JEL : E61, F32, F42. . . [fre] Est-ce réellement une bonne idée de faire de la réduction des déséquilibres globaux une priorité, comme l’ont proposé les participants au G20 Finances de Washington, les 13 et 14 avril 2011, en adoptant des lignes directrices indicatives afin de remédier aux déséquilibres courants majeurs et persistants ? Pour répondre à cette question, plusieurs interrogations doivent être abordées : Quel a été le rôle des déséquilibres globaux dans la montée des fragilités financières d’avant-crise ? Quels sont les fondements analytiques d’une telle limitation des surplus et des déficits externes ? Est-ce là un objectif intrinsèque de politique économique, ou plutôt une cible intermédiaire de nature à mieux coordonner les politiques économiques et les dynamiques de change parmi les pays du G20 ? Et surtout, est-il opportun de s’y atteler en temps de crise ? . Classification JEL : E61, F32, F42.
