The size of government in the G7 countries in the last fifty years follows a common pattern: it grows in the first three decades, then turns flat at the beginning of the nineties, for all countries alike. We highlight this common pattern in a dynamic factor model, and argue that a satisfactory explanation for it would be desirable.

Abstract

The size of government in the G7 countries in the last fifty years follows a common pattern: it grows in the first three decades, then turns flat at the beginning of the nineties, for all countries alike. We highlight this common pattern in a dynamic factor model, and argue that a satisfactory explanation for it would be desirable.
