%X This paper examines whether incumbent national governments of eleven member states of the European Union manipulated the tax policy instruments at their disposal in order to create national political business cycles, opportunistic or partisan. The empirical evidence, based on data concerning the 1965-97 period, does not support this hypothesis. Rather, it appears that governments have pursued stabilization policies.
