This paper presents an inquiry into the observed results when governments have implemented one or other type of (opposed) economic policy prescribed in economics to reverse the consequences of a global economic crisis –like that unleashed in 2008. An updated assessment of the evidence in this respect is developed, through a review of available empirical studies and analysis of the outcomes - in terms of recovery of economic activity - of having applied one and the other ‘competing’ economic policies. The approach focuses on the causal relationships involved, mainly between variations in public spending/fiscal deficit and changes in economic activity’s indicators. The paper elaborates mainly on the empirical pieces of evidence regarding the topic.
