Abstract

Zusammenfassung Weltweit sind die Volkswirtschaften mit hohen Preissteigerungen konfrontiert. Unter anderem beeinflusst die Inflation den Staatshaushalt sowie die Tragfähigkeit der öffentlichen Schulden. Wie und in welchem Ausmaß wird die Staatsschuldenquote durch die höhere Inflationsrate beeinflusst? Es wird gezeigt, dass eine hohe Inflation kein Heilmittel gegen eine hohe Staatsschuldenquote ist.
