| dc.description.abstract | This paper provides a succinct overview of long-run developments regarding public finances in Portugal with an emphasis on the spending side. Issues addressed are the excessive deficit experiences of Portugal, the past experience with fiscal consolidations, and labour cost competitiveness. It is fair to stay that public spending control has been a problem in Portugal, and fiscal consolidations in the 1980s and 1990s have been short-termed and mostly not successful. Additionally, the compensation of general government employees diverged vis-à-vis the EU15 after EU entry. | por |
