Sustainability tests often ignore the joint dynamics of stock and flow variables. This paper shows that such a practice leads to inappropriate statistical inference, and that taking into account this joint dynamics when testing for unit root induces large power gains. This paper introduces a new...

This paper introduces a new unit root test, using "Feedback Covariates", in order to test for sustainability of fiscal policy within the G-7.Non-sustainability is considered as the null hypothesis of both a unit root in the debt process and the nullity of a deficit correction in response to...

This paper proposes a new testing strategy for unemployment hysteris as the joint restriction of a unit-root in the unemployment rate and no-effect of the level of unemployment in the Phillips wage equation. The relevant test statistics are derived when this joint restriction is imposed during...
