摘要: 金融危机以来各国的财政刺激带来了巨大的政府赤字和债务规模,当前西方国家的政治精英和主流宏观经济学对于财政赤字的反对浪潮依赖于存在严重缺陷的经济理论和保守主义的意识形态。本文以公共财政的货币原理重新审视了西方主流宏观经济学有关政府财政赤字的一些关键性理论观点,对其有关政府预算约束、赤字开支的挤出效应以及债务货币化的通胀效应等谬误进行了反驳,认为主权货币制度之下的主权政府不存在预算约束问题,政府赤字开支挤入了私人投资并且与通货膨胀没有必然联系,政府赤字开支有利于提升国民收入并降低对于国外经济的依附。我国应该坚决拒绝新自由主义的政策药方,并按照政府的公共目的确立符合现代经济特征和国家利益的财政赤字观。

Abstract: With the great financial crisis breaking out, fiscal stimulus around the world have brought a huge scale of government deficit and debt, and the current wave against fiscal deficit hold by the western politic elites and mainstream macroeconomics relies on their heavily defective theory and conservative ideologyThis paper reexamined some central perspectives on government deficit of western mainstream macroeconomics by a monetary theory of public finance, and refuted some fallacies regarding GBC, crowding out effect and inflationary effect of debt monetizationAnd we hold the ideas that there is no budget constraint on central government under a state monetary systems, deficit spending crowds in private investment and is not necessarily related to inflation,and helps to promote national income and reduce the attachment to foreign economyWe conclude that China needs to simply reject neoliberalism policy prescriptions, and form the view of fiscal deficit fitting in with modern economy and our national interests under the public purpose of our government
