| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project obtains the following results. (1) As part of fundamental problems with fiscal stimulus measures, we point out the presence of money illusion, political manipulation of macroeconomic policies, and ways of stimulating an economy through government expenditures without a decline in private consumption. (2) We find that the effect of fiscal stimulus measure is small after the 1990s in Japan, because local government investments fail to coordinate with central government investments and non-subsidized expense by local government is not implemented according to requests by central government. (3) We identify the Japanese local tax movements as an automatic stabilizer and demonstrate that the automatic stabilizers become more effective as output volatility increases.
