In Surrender, Michael Meeropol takes a close look at what actually happened to the American economy during the years of the "Reagan Revolution," revealing with compelling evidence the policies that were truly responsible for the failure to generate rapid growth and other economic improvements. Meeropol gives a detailed account of the inability of the U.S. economy between 1990 and 1994 to improve productivity or raise incomes for most of the population. He contends that the next recession, certain to begin before the end of 1999, will reveal public policymakers' predictions of balanced budgets and millennial prosperity to be hubris of the highest order.

This report outlines the recent course of events in government spending, taxation, and employment at all three levels, and briefly reviews the fiscal limitation movement and its accomplishment. The report also includes the findings from a case study of the recent fiscal history of Los Angeles, which may help explain taxpayer discontent. Prevailing sentiment, as expressed through the American political system, appears to favor containment, if not contraction, in government. Along the road to this objective, some groups are likely to suffer as others gain. The report concludes with as assessment of the social costs and political effects that containment may engender. It is offered in the hope that, armed with foreknowledge, the nation can avoid causing needless harm through unreflective zeal.

This paper empirically explores how fiscal policy (represented by increases in government spending) has asymmetric effects on economic activity at different levels of real interest rates. It suggests that the effect of fiscal policy depends on the level of real rates, since the Ricardian effect is smaller at lower financing costs of fiscal policy. Using threshold regression models on U.S. data, the paper provides new evidence that expansionary government spending is more conducive to short-run growth when real rates are low. It also finds asymmetric effects on interest rates and inflation, and threshold effects associated with substitution between financing methods.

Major budgeting reforms have been initiated in a number of OECD countries in recent years. These reforms focus on giving spending agencies greater flexibility in using resources, in exchange for holding them responsible for achieving results. This publication examines how five Member countries -- Australia, France, New Zealand, Sweden and the United Kingdom -- have implemented reforms in this area and offers an early assessment of the progress of those reforms.
