چکیده:

     In the standard growth models such as Barro (1990), government size is related to economic growth within an inverted U curve framework. Increase in government spending would result in an increase in the supply of public goods, which in turn contributes to growth. An expansion of government spending, however, necessitates an increase in tax, which would lead to lower saving and investment with a subsequent hampering effect on economic growth. In this paper, in order to study the relationship between government performance and economic growth in the Iranian economy, three channels of impact have been devised. The first channel concerns budgetary activities. The second considers government ownership and incumbencies and the third channel deals with the impact of government non-budgetary activities, which includes a range of policy interventions in different markets. Findings of the study demonstrate that the government size in the public budget area as well as the government size in the area of ownership and incumbencies is related to growth of the Iranian economy, within the frame of two inverted U-curves. Government policy distortions entail diminishing implications on growth. Results of estimations of current research indicate that the government is smaller than optimum size in public sector areas but much larger than the desired size in ownership and incumbencies area.
