摘要:This paper aims to analyze the specific interconnections established between public indebtedness and inflation , both from the perspective of considering inflation as a result of public borrowing and of voluntarily promoting inflation to reduce the (real) value of public debt and to ease its burden . It identifies the channels through which these effects are occurring , it determines the conditions of their manifestation and evaluates their relevance for different ( developed and developing ) contemporary economies . Although promoting irrational public borrowing may lead to inflation , such a correlation proved to be quite difficult to identify in the practice , especially for currently developed economies
