Evidence indicates that the tightening of restrictive policies experienced in Italy after 2010/11 did not lead to fiscal consolidation, while they contributed to increase debt-to-GDP ratio by curbing aggregate demand. Particularly, budget cuts occurred in health and education. On the contrary, we argue that expansionary measures may lower the debt ratio by increasing rea output.

Abstract
Evidence indicates that the tightening of restrictive policies experienced in Italy after 2010/11 did not lead to fiscal consolidation, while they contributed to increase debt-to-GDP ratio by curbing aggregate demand. Particularly, budget cuts occurred in health and education. On the contrary, we argue that expansionary measures may lower the debt ratio by increasing rea output.File allegati a questo prodotto
