Raghuram Rajan (dont le dernier essai dans Foreign Policy a fait sensation dans la blogosphère économique américaine) a publié hier une tribune dans le Financial Times, dont voici un extrait de la conclusion
« Targeted government spending, or reduced austerity, along the lines suggested by sensible Keynesians, might be feasible in some countries and helpful in speeding recovery. But we should examine each policy based on a country’s circumstances. We should be particularly wary of populist Keynesians, who parrot “in the long run we are dead” to justify any short-sighted government action. They do the world a disservice by suggesting there are easy ways out. By misleading people and their leaders, they may well precipitate revolution rather than recovery. »
