Kairiųjų ir dešiniųjų partijų įgyvendinamos finansų politikos ir jų efektyvumas : Lietuvos atvejis

Abstract

Straipsnyje analizuojama Lietuvos valdančių kairiųjų ir dešiniųjų partijų įgyvendinama finansų politika ir jos efektyvumas. Tyrimas atliktas vertinant pagrindinius šalies mokesčius (PVM, GPM ir pelno) ir biudžeto išlaidas, BVP pokytį, nedarbo lygį ir tiesiogines užsienio investicijas valdant skirtingoms politinėms jėgoms. Tyrimo metu nustatyta, kad Lietuvoje valdančios kairiosios jėgos, įgyvendindamos finansų politiką, nėra linkusios labiau didinti pagrindinius šalies mokesčių tarifus ir biudžeto išlaidas nei dešiniosios jėgos. Daroma išvada, kad nėra reikšmingo skirtumo tarp Lietuvos valdančių kairiųjų ir dešiniųjų partijų įgyvendinamos finansų politikos efektyvumo
