Abstract
Az elmúlt időszakban a költségvetési deficit nagysága Magyarországon a gazdaságpolitika egyik legégetőbb problémájá vált, veszélyeztetve mind az eurózónához való csatlakozás időpontját, mind a fenntartható növekedést. Tekintve a konszolidáció utóbbi időben megfigyelhető nehézségeit, felmerül a kérdés, mivel magyarázható a tartósan magas deficit. A kérdést a tanulmány a hiány politikai gazdaságtani irodalma alapján válaszolja meg, amely az utóbbi időben a közgazdasági tényezők helyett egyre inkább az intézményi szabályozások fontosságát hangsúlyozza. A magyarországi szabályozórendszer áttekintéséből adódó fő következtetés: a költségvetési folyamat gyengeségei lehetővé teszik a rövid távú érdekek dominanciáját a döntéshozatalban, és így - lassuló növekedés és politikai feszültségek idején - nagyban erősítik a hiányra való hajlamot. Ezért a hosszú távon kiegyensúlyozott költségvetés megteremtéséhez elkerülhetetlen az államháztartási szabályozások reformja. Journal of Economics Literature (JEL) kód: H61, H62.
