Abstract

This research aims to: (i) know if the deficit budget policy that has been used is a policy that should always be used to respond to the development of economic conjunctions; and (ii) provide policy alternatives in managing state budgets to maintain economic stability and continuity and people's welfare. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach method with content analysis techniques and library research. The results showed that: (i) the deficit budget policy that has been implemented in the management of the state budget is a policy that is less responsive to economic cycles/conjunctions; and (ii) budget policies need to be responsive and flexible in addressing economic cycles/conjunctions. In it, countercyclical policies are needed, controlling economic development so that the phases in the economic conjunction can run more steadily. Thus, the budget is not always packed with deficits to pursue economic growth, but adjusts the conjunction of a growing economy.
