40、算中的現(xiàn)金赤字是首要任務(wù)。國內(nèi)個人投資，國外直接投資和政府投資應(yīng)該結(jié)合起來成為互補的力量，共同確保國家經(jīng)濟快速增長。 </p><p>　　Abel and Bernanke（2001）研究表明根據(jù)經(jīng)濟理論，財政赤字和政府債券擠壓著經(jīng)濟的潛在增長。這不是需求約束經(jīng)濟的真正原因。雖然投資可以導(dǎo)致經(jīng)濟增長，但這也不是政府運行赤字來增加投資費用的原因。許多發(fā)展中國家希望減少政府在經(jīng)濟領(lǐng)域中的活動，鼓勵個體經(jīng)

41、濟領(lǐng)域的發(fā)展。本文嘗試建立一個系統(tǒng)的模型，它包含了發(fā)展中國家的全部財政情況概要，并且用整合的微觀經(jīng)濟輸入輸出模型來解釋從政府財政數(shù)據(jù)分析中得到的結(jié)果。</p><p>　　增長理論鼓勵政府在基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施領(lǐng)域，教育領(lǐng)域，健康領(lǐng)域和相關(guān)領(lǐng)域的投資。高速發(fā)展的經(jīng)濟要求經(jīng)濟高效率，在私人投資和政府投資方面都需要鼓勵。政府強調(diào)在可控制的情況下在兩個領(lǐng)域采取果斷行動，引進公共債券，迎接挑戰(zhàn)。第一個目標是創(chuàng)造一個國家收入比公共債券

42、增長得快，允許國家超負荷債券負擔(dān)的情形。第二個目標是通過減少預(yù)算赤字來減慢好和最終改變公共債券增長。這個終將使公共費用減少同時增加收入。這種調(diào)節(jié)是不可避免的，而且不得不通過有效的管理保證負擔(dān)共享是公平的，保證對社會多數(shù)的易受傷害的成員不是一種強制的超負荷負擔(dān)。在不限制經(jīng)濟繁榮條件的改革實施也是必要的。為了經(jīng)濟的快速發(fā)展，官方正確的表達了關(guān)注目前超額的赤字而不是全部的赤字，因為通過政府在構(gòu)建基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施或通過相類似的活動形式的資金費用是有利于

43、提高未來經(jīng)濟潛在的發(fā)展而不是減少資金費用。試圖通過重建財政的立場來發(fā)展經(jīng)濟應(yīng)該謹慎，而不是通過減少政府在物品和服務(wù)購買，不是創(chuàng)造過激需求不足，也不是為了達到既定的GDP財政赤字目標率而減少政府投資。政府消費是經(jīng)濟過度需求的一部分。這一部分的減少會影響資金的利用率，除非在私人領(lǐng)域消費或投資或凈出口有相應(yīng)的增加。</p><p>　　雖然非古典經(jīng)濟學(xué)家聲稱在政府采購永久性的減少是導(dǎo)致可支配收入永久性增加和刺激私人消費

44、，但仍沒有關(guān)于此超前行為看法的具體的證據(jù)，甚至是在美國這種發(fā)達國家或亞洲如印度這類的發(fā)展中國家。在政府稅收和非稅收收入的不同赤字類型顯示了最終公共物品和服務(wù)現(xiàn)有的消費的過度性。由于市場缺陷的存在，減少最終消費支出或許不能保證私人消費的相應(yīng)增長。經(jīng)濟增長的關(guān)鍵是政府投資，作為預(yù)算赤字的一部分呈下降趨勢。作為目前收入超過目前消費一部分的政府投資同樣也是下降趨勢。在這種情況下，政府應(yīng)該試圖增加公共投資資源來使人們感到受到鼓舞而參加私人領(lǐng)域。如

45、果任何現(xiàn)有的收入增加超過政府最終消費支出的減少是可行的那么或許政府應(yīng)增加資源的投資以此來促進經(jīng)濟潛在發(fā)展。人們普遍認為非經(jīng)濟政府支出取決于發(fā)展經(jīng)濟的宏觀管理的諸多問題。</p><p>　　我們開始命題，總投資有兩部分組成：國內(nèi)和國外。它出現(xiàn)了國內(nèi)的投資沒有根據(jù)的加速器類型的機制運行，因為系數(shù)滯后，即使在國內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值的百分之10級也是沒有統(tǒng)計意義的。國家對產(chǎn)品的出口要求并不依賴于國際實際收入，此估計模型忽略了假定

47、4，其他制造業(yè)產(chǎn)品。我們發(fā)現(xiàn)，這四類消費僅僅與可支配GDP緊密地聯(lián)系。</p><p>　　投資：此模型定義了兩種主要投資支出的類型：1，設(shè)施建設(shè)和土地發(fā)展投資；2，機械生產(chǎn)和設(shè)備制造投資。主要出口類型被界定為如下幾個類型：1，其他農(nóng)業(yè)產(chǎn)品；2，服裝；3，非金屬產(chǎn)品；4，其他制造產(chǎn)品；5，機械生及設(shè)備制造產(chǎn)品。</p><p>　　進口明細：主要進口類型被定義為如下幾類：1，橡膠制品；2，

49、的主要結(jié)論是：個人通過銀行對私信貸和FDI的投資與政府通過銀行對公信貸的投資是互補的。高通貨膨脹率導(dǎo)致高通脹率預(yù)期。此種高通脹預(yù)期會通過其對供應(yīng)方的不利影響降低潛在的經(jīng)濟增長。因此，雖然政府投資在經(jīng)濟發(fā)展中的角色十分關(guān)鍵，但明白銀行對政府信貸也許并不是增長政府投資最好的方式也是十分重要的。</p><p>　　政府的政策文件(斯里蘭卡2002)依賴私人部門的積極性增加投資,加快經(jīng)濟的增長。根據(jù)政府政策，政府的職能

51、的債務(wù)。因此 ，假如我們把債務(wù)人和債權(quán)人放在相同的立足點上它沒有承擔(dān)任何債務(wù)負擔(dān)。一個外債,另一方面,對國民經(jīng)濟和關(guān)系到它所資信國際捐贈人絕對是一個凈負擔(dān)。增加政府預(yù)算赤字會增加現(xiàn)有公共債務(wù)。在將來如果政府提高稅率會抵消這筆債務(wù),但效率低下。為了重新得到斯里蘭卡(斯里蘭卡2002),政府正在被提議的建筑“世界級的收入權(quán)威”成立。</p><p>　　這篇論文，在斯里蘭卡經(jīng)濟增長的背景下，我們分析了有關(guān)政府的財政赤

52、字和越來越多的公共債務(wù)中的兩個問題。在分析了從1975年到2000年政府預(yù)算的數(shù)據(jù)時,學(xué)者們發(fā)現(xiàn)了所有基本項目通貨的順差。政府目前購買的物品與勞務(wù)沒有超出它的整體稅收和非稅收的物品。然而,經(jīng)常支出項目總額達到了政府部門的稅收和非稅收的其它收入。政府投資支出在預(yù)算赤字的比率也低。這使作者得出這樣的結(jié)論: 在經(jīng)濟中，政府的財政轉(zhuǎn)移支付制度及其利息在過去的債務(wù)的兩個主要原因,導(dǎo)致了預(yù)算赤字累計的滾雪球式的國債。持續(xù)的內(nèi)部種族沖突也把重擔(dān)落在了

53、政府身上。</p><p>　　為了扭轉(zhuǎn)這一趨勢,政府的政策文件恢復(fù)斯里蘭卡(斯里蘭卡,2002)，提出組成的一種行動計劃減少政府支出，以及提高了收入通過"世界級的收入局”。 研究發(fā)現(xiàn), 在提議的稅收制度下，整體稅收和基建政府收入過去的趨勢是接近預(yù)期政策文件的收入計劃。因此，只有兩個地區(qū)，在那些地區(qū)政府確實有空間來運作，以轉(zhuǎn)移支付社會福利計劃的形式試圖抵消過去的債務(wù)。目前的研究量化到一定程度,將有可能讓

54、政府增加資源通過削減福利支出。圖表上顯示的實際資源增加的程度實際很可能在1988年后,如果政府間消費支出系列里經(jīng)常支出的比率已經(jīng)降低到兩點五個百分點(相當于一半的實際匯率)。這些額外的資源可以增大地區(qū)政府投資，這些地方的私人投資不易有風(fēng)險。通過這種方式,政府預(yù)算赤字可以減少,政府投資就會刺激增長。</p><p>　　對于斯里蘭卡的經(jīng)濟發(fā)展，一個超大型集合經(jīng)濟體的概述和投入產(chǎn)出模型可以清楚地看到，通過歷史模擬，政

55、府的投資在加快斯里蘭卡經(jīng)濟增長會發(fā)揮重要作用。模擬實驗基于超大型經(jīng)濟模型也突顯了私人投資的潛力，以及帶動經(jīng)濟增長中吸引了外商直接投資。然而,加大政府投入力度和銀行信貸政府不是同義詞。研究結(jié)果表明,后者已在很大程度上被用來彌補政府預(yù)算赤字,這些赤字源自于的多于收入的的超額經(jīng)常支出。對政府銀行信貸的增加造成貨幣基礎(chǔ)能夠迅速擴大, 在斯里蘭卡創(chuàng)造了高通貨膨脹率。高通貨膨脹率導(dǎo)致高通脹率預(yù)期。此種高通脹預(yù)期會通過其對供應(yīng)方的不利影響降低潛在的經(jīng)
