International Journal of Business and Economics, 2009, vol. 8, issue 2, 133-158

Abstract: Using annual data, this paper studies the time series evidence regarding the effectiveness of government spending. Crowding out appears more prevalent in the face of variation in government spending in advanced countries. Private consumption and inflation vary more closely with government spending in developing countries.
