Abstract
To measure the effectiveness of fiscal policy in France, we estimate a structural VAR inspired by Blanchard and Perotti (2002). Consistently with most large macroeconometric models, our findings show the macroeconomic effectiveness of a structural increase in public spending in the short run (multiplier close to 1.4), which ? beyond its mechanical impact on aggregate demand ? stimulatesprivateconsumptionandinvestment.Similarly, theestimatedeffectofastructuralincreaseintaxesonoutputisnegative, mainly because of a decrease in private consumption; however, this response is small (multiplierclose toonly-0.1) and significant only in the very short run, although the result depends on the specific tax examined.
