520 _aDo coalition governments really suffer from short time horizons infiscal policymaking, as posited by standard political-economy models? This article focusses on coalitions that have created high levels of familiarity through sharedgoverning experiences in the past and that are likely to cooperate againin future governing coalitions. I argue that such coalitions have incentives tointernalise the future costs of debt accumulation and reach credible agreementsto balance their constituencies. fiscal preferences. Moreover, sustaining broadcoalitions should have electoral advantages to implementing controversial economic reforms, thusresulting in lower debt increases compared not only with lessdurable coalitions but also with single-party governments. Comparing 36 economically advanced democracies between (up to) 1962 and 2013, I estimate the effectsof coalitions.cooperation prospects on the dynamics of public debt. The findings indicate that long time horizons can help coalitions to overcome intertemporalcoordination problems and to reach specific policy goals.
