| Research Abstract |
In this study, we tested whether the non-Keynesian effects existed in Japan applying Hjelm (2002)'s methodology, which was based on the solved-out consumption function in turn. All of the previous studies on this topic in Japan were based on the Euler equation ; therefore, it was new at lease in the methodological points of view. The most important results of this study was to detect the existence of the non-Keynesian effects in Japanese economy, and to find that we could obtain 1% increase in private consumption if the ratio of structural primary deficit to GDP decreased by 1% or the cumulative decrease in this ratio for two years amounted to 1.5%.
In addition to this analysis, we studied the following three relevant points : (1)the existence of the non-Keynesian effects using Threshold VAR, (2)empirical analyses on the association of budget deficit/government debt with long-term interest rates, and (3)the productivity of public capital, which would be related to the non-Keynesian effects through changes in expected future income of households. These complements would be useful to understand the main topic of this study and for future studies.
