The impact of rationalising public expenditure on reducing the public budget deficit: A case study of Algeria (1990–2019)
Keywords:
Public budget, public budget deficit, rationalisation of public expenditure, Algerian economyAbstract
This study aims to examine the role of rationalising public expenditure in reducing the state's public budget deficit, focusing on Algeria during the period 1990–2019. To investigate this issue, this research discusses the theoretical aspects of the public budget deficit and the rationalisation of public expenditure before turning to the role that expenditure rationalisation plays in limiting the public budget deficit. The study concludes that Algeria's public budget recorded a persistent deficit throughout the period under review due to the inability of public revenues to keep pace with rising public expenditure.
