Abstract
Using a sample of 115 nations with internationally comparable data from Summers and Heston (1984) I test the hypothesis that inflation increases government expenditure share as a consequence of political pressure brought about by unsettled implicit social contracts. Using OLS regression with primarily stationary time-series the hypothesis is broadly but not universally supported for the nations in the sample.
