Abstract

L'articolo introduce al presente numero, rivedendone i contenuti e ponendoli nel contesto dell'attuale crisi europea.Evidenzia brevemente la rilevanza dell'articolo pubblicato da Josef Steindl in questo numero per la prima volta, così come l'articolo di Nina Shapiro sull'economista austriaco.Questi contributi forniscono l'occasione per discutere la questione spesso trascurata delle conseguenze a lungo termine di diverse forme di stimolo della domanda aggregata, come i deficit fiscali o le eccedenze delle partite correnti.Tale questione evidenzia alcune delle cause economiche reali a lungo termine della recente crisi finanziaria, consentendo così di aggirare efficacemente la falsa dicotomia tra variabili reali e finanziarie.

The article introduces to the present issue, reviewing its contents and placing them in the context of the current European crisis. It shortly highlights the relevance of the article by Josef Steindl published in this issue for the first time, as well as the article by Nina Shapiro on the Austrian economist. These contributions provide the occasion to discuss the often neglected issue of the long-run consequences of several forms of stimulus of aggregate demand, such as fiscal deficits or current account surpluses. Such issue highlights some long-run real economic causes of the recent financial crisis, thus allowing to effectively bypass the false dichotomy between real and financial variables.
