This paper explores the implications of the level and allocation of government expenditure in small open economies, drawing on experience in the Caribbean. The economy is modelled with two sectors: a tradable sector where demand elasticities are infinite at prices set by international markets and non-tradable sector for which both prices and output may vary. The stability of the economy is defined by the way the relative prices of tradables and nontradables adjust in search of internal and external balance.
