"In a dynamic optimising model with costly tax collection, a tax cut by one nation creates positive externalities for the rest of the world if initial public debt stocks are positive. By reducing tax collection costs, current tax cuts boost the resources available for current private consumption, lowering the global interest rate. This pecuniary externality benefits other countries because it reduces the tax collection costs for foreign governments of current and future debt service. In the non-cooperative equilibrium, nationalistic governments do not allow for the effect of lower domestic taxes on debt service costs abroad. Taxes are too high and government budget deficits too low compared to the global cooperative equilibrium. Even in the cooperative equilibrium complete tax smoothing is not optimal: current taxes will be lower than future taxes"--NBER website

L’histoire littéraire des fictions de l’artiste du dernier quart de siècle reste à écrire. Portée par cet objectif, l’auteure a rassemblé dans cet ouvrage des études visant à approfondir le lien - essentiel et énigmatique - qui lie tout créateur à son travail. Elles permettent de renouveler l’approche de la notion du personnage de l’artiste, à vocation mythique, celle de l’intermédiation artistique et littéraire et, dans le domaine propre au cinéma, la hiérarchie même des arts. Limitées aux univers francophone et hispanophone, ces études gravitent toutes autour de la quête du beau et de l’Art.
