أثر سياسة الإنفاق العام على النمو الاقتصادي : دراسة قياسية لحالة الجزائر

Abstract EN

This paper aims to study the impact of public expenditure policy on economic growth in Algeria over the period 1970-2015.

The main findings indicate that total public expenditures, government capital expenditures, private investments and the degree of trade openness have a positive and significant effect on economic growth, while there is no significant impact of government current expenditures on real per capita GDP over the long run.

Based on these findings, it could be concluded that the government should hedge against the mounting risks and challenges by underpinning public financial management reforms, controlling current spending especially wages and transfers, mobilizing more nonhydrocarbon revenues, and increasing the efficiency of investment.
