TRUE OR FALSE: EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE ON WAGNER’S LAW FROM CYPRUS

Abstract

The paper attempts to test Wagner’s law by examining relationships between GDP and total public expenditure as well as its various components for North Cyprus during the period 1977-2001. Philips-Perron tests are used to check the stationary properties of all series. The Johansen full information maximum likelihood method is used to identify the long-run relationships between GDP and various components of public expenditure. In the case of long run relationships, the Granger bivariate procedure is used to identify the direction of causality. Where variables are not cointegrated, Granger’s causality technique is employed to test the direction of short run causation.
