本文分析了比利时联邦政府2009年至2014年的财政整顿政策(截至2014年年初的预算),通过文献分析和访谈来考察这一政策的强度、内容和决策过程。我们期望在宏观经济环境、政治一行政体制和外部影响中来寻求对这一具体财政整顿政策的解释。我们发现,比利时联邦政府通常的适度预算削减被一次意外的重大预算行动打断了。对这一财政整顿模式的最好解释是,比利时内部的政治一行政矛盾,产生政策连续性,以及要求政策制定者克服政治一行政矛盾的外部压力。
This article analyzes the fiscal consolidation policy of the Belgian federal government from 2009 to 2014 (as of the beginning of 2014) and examines the intensity, content and decision-making process of this policy through literature analysis and interviews. We look forward to seeking an explanation for this specific fiscal consolidation policy in the macroeconomic environment, the political-administrative system and external influences. We found that the usual moderate budget cuts by the Belgian federal government were interrupted by an unexpected major budget move. The best explanation for this pattern of fiscal consolidation is the political-administrative contradictions within Belgium that create policy continuity and require external pressure on policymakers to overcome the political-administrative contradictions.
