William D. Nordhaus on Political Elections - Dictionary of Arguments
Mause I 281 Political Elections/Nordhaus: Nordhaus presented a theoretical model in which re-elected governments stimulate the economy by expanding the money supply before the election. (1) After the election, a restrictive monetary policy will reduce the inflation that has arisen in the meantime. The result is a "political economic cycle". Other authors suspected that this could be caused not only by monetary policy measures but also by fiscal policy. (2) See Economic Cycle/Tufte. 1. William D. Nordhaus. 1975.
