Abstract

En este trabajo incorporamos al análisis teórico clásico de Calvo y Végh (1990,1991) y Végh (1992) sobre planes de estabilización de alta inflación basados en el tipo de cambio, el rol de la política fiscal, entendida como la dinámica del gasto público y la implementación de una reforma impositiva, así como también el rol de las devaluaciones nominales. Encontramos que las dinámicas de la inflación, el tipo de cambio real y la actividad son mucho más diversas y complejas, aun en el caso de perfecta credibilidad, que en los modelos originales. En relación a las estabilizaciones con credibilidad imperfecta, podemos matizar la expansión en el producto que sugieren estudios como el de Kiguel y Liviatan (1992) y establecer condiciones bajo las cuales dicha expansión se atenúa o incluso puede llegar a desaparecer. Finalmente, si bien todos nuestros hallazgos son teóricos, estos traen consigo implicancias empíricas susceptibles de ser contrastadas en futuras investigaciones.
