However, no argument is really convincing because, as usual in economics, theory does not provide a definitive answer. The objective of this article is to study the impact of Morocco's total government debt on economic growth. We will estimate an ARDL model (Auto Regressive Distributed Lag model), which is part of the class of dynamic models, and which makes possible to capture the temporal effects (adjustment time, anticipations, etc.) in the explanation of a variable.     JEL classification: H10, H60, O40 Paper Type: Empirical Research Keywords: ARDL Model, Government debt, Economic Growth, Debt Crisis Journal: International Journal of Accounting, Finance, Auditing, Management and Economics Pages: 460-472 Volume: 2 Issue: 6-1 Year: 2021 File-URL: https://ijafame.org/index.php/ijafame/article/view/315 File-Format: text/html File-URL: https://ijafame.org/index.php/ijafame/article/view/315/315 File-Format: application/pdf Handle: RePEc:aoa:journl:v:2:y:2021:i:6-1:p:460-472
