Book Synopsis Inflation, Unemployment, and Monetary Policy by : Robert M. Solow
Download or read book Inflation, Unemployment, and Monetary Policy written by Robert M. Solow and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edited and with an introduction by Benjamin M. Friedman The connection between price inflation and real economic activity has been a focus of macroeconomic research--and debate--for much of the past century. Although this connection is crucial to our understanding of what monetary policy can and cannot accomplish, opinions about its basic properties have swung widely over the years. Today, virtually everyone studying monetary policy acknowledges that, contrary to what many modern macroeconomic models suggest, central bank actions often affect both inflation and measures of real economic activity, such as output, unemployment, and incomes. But the nature and magnitude of these effects are not yet understood. In this volume, Robert M. Solow and John B. Taylor present their views on the dilemmas facing U.S. monetary policymakers. The discussants are Benjamin M. Friedman, James K. Galbraith, N. Gregory Mankiw, and William Poole. The aim of this lively exchange of views is to make both an intellectual contribution to macroeconmics and a practical contribution to the solution of a public policy question of central importance.
Book Synopsis The World Economy in Crisis by : Lorie Tarshis
Download or read book The World Economy in Crisis written by Lorie Tarshis and published by James Lorimer & Company. This book was released on 1984-01-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lorie Tarshis held that much of the economic suffering in the 1970s was not necessary, that the crisis could have been easily eased had it not been for governments' faulty diagnoses and poorly-designed prescriptions. Faced with increasingly serious energy shortages, economic slowdowns, rising unemployment and skyrocketing Third World debt, Western governments responded with inflation-fighting policies left over from the Second World War that served only to exaccerbate the situation. In this book Tarshis recommended an overall strategy to confront these problems without resorting to the stopgaps then in vogue with government decision makers. World Economy in Crisis offers an acute diagnosis of the pervasive malaise facing the world economy in the 1970s, and a critical perspective on contemporary official responses to it.

Book Synopsis The Societal Costs of Inflation and Unemployment by : Olga Popova

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the broad societal implications of inflation and unemployment? Analyzing a dataset of over 1.9 million individuals from 156 countries via the Gallup World Poll spanning 2005 to 2021, alongside macroeconomic data at the national level, we find that both inflation and unemployment have a negative link with confidence in financial institutions. While inflation is generally unassociated with confidence in government and leadership approval, unemployment still has a strong negative association with these outcomes. While we find no gender differences in the consequences of inflation and unemployment for confidence in political and financial institutions, the associations we document are more substantial for the cohorts that are likely to bear a disproportionate burden from inflation and unemployment - the middle-aged, lower-educated, and unmarried individuals, and for those living in rural areas. Uncertainty about the country's economic performance and one's own economic situation are the primary channels behind the associations we identify. These findings hold significant implications for policymakers, Central Banks, and public discourse, necessitating targeted strategies to alleviate the social consequences of inflation and unemployment.

Book Synopsis Inflation and Unemployment in a Monetary Union by : Michael Carlberg
Download or read book Inflation and Unemployment in a Monetary Union written by Michael Carlberg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-07-15 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the coexistence of inflation and unemployment in a monetary union. The focus is on how to reduce the associated loss. The primary target of the European central bank is low inflation in Europe. The primary target of the German government is low unemployment in Germany. And the primary target of the French government is low unemployment in France. The European central bank has a quadratic loss function. The same applies to the German government and the French government. The key questions are: To what extent can the sequential process of monetary and fiscal decisions reduce the loss caused by inflation and unemployment? Is monetary and fiscal cooperation superior to the sequential process of monetary and fiscal decisions? The present book is part of a larger research project on European Monetary Union, see the references given at the back of the book. Some parts of this project were presented at the World Congress of the International Economic Association, at the International Conference on Macroeconomic Analysis, at the International Institute of Public Finance, and at the International Atlantic Economic Conference. Other parts were presented at the Macro Study Group of the German Economic Association, at the Annual Meeting of the Austrian Economic Association, at the Göttingen Workshop on International Economics, at the Halle Workshop on Monetary Economics, at the Research Seminar on Macroeconomics in Freiburg, at the Research Seminar on Economics in Kassel, and at the Passau Workshop on International Economics.
Book Synopsis The Great Inflation by : Michael D. Bordo
Download or read book The Great Inflation written by Michael D. Bordo and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Controlling inflation is among the most important objectives of economic policy. By maintaining price stability, policy makers are able to reduce uncertainty, improve price-monitoring mechanisms, and facilitate more efficient planning and allocation of resources, thereby raising productivity. This volume focuses on understanding the causes of the Great Inflation of the 1970s and ’80s, which saw rising inflation in many nations, and which propelled interest rates across the developing world into the double digits. In the decades since, the immediate cause of the period’s rise in inflation has been the subject of considerable debate. Among the areas of contention are the role of monetary policy in driving inflation and the implications this had both for policy design and for evaluating the performance of those who set the policy. Here, contributors map monetary policy from the 1960s to the present, shedding light on the ways in which the lessons of the Great Inflation were absorbed and applied to today’s global and increasingly complex economic environment.

Book Synopsis Toward a Theory of Institutional Inflation by : János Horváth
Download or read book Toward a Theory of Institutional Inflation written by János Horváth and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This research is based on the premise that institutional factors underlie the inflation-unemployment dilemma. The methodological approach involves a disaggregation of economic activities, identification of the components of inflation, and, then, measurement of the impact of specific mission-oriented regulations, such as environmental protection. This approach advances the conceptual notions and empirical capabilities of the Phillips Curve framework. The interaction of six inflation "agents" (money stock, demand pull, wage push, administered pricing, dynamic expectations, and capacity idleness) will be observed as their vectors move particular inflation-unemployment points within the Phillips diagram. An improved investigative method will be developed to focus on institutional rigidities that restrain capacity utilization in the national economy. The model reveals and quantifies the processes through which "implicit grants" (layers of subsidies, quotas, cartels, discriminations, monopolies) motivate supply restraints which, in turn, raise prices. Finally, thorough the adaptation of some measurement techniques of grants economics, this research offers significant conceptual improvements toward sorting out specific policy measures capable of unbending inelastic supply functions in micro as well as macro economics"--Leaf ii.
Book Synopsis Understanding Inflation and the Implications for Monetary Policy by : Jeff Fuhrer
Download or read book Understanding Inflation and the Implications for Monetary Policy written by Jeff Fuhrer and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2009-09-11 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current perspectives on the Phillips curve, a core macroeconomic concept that treats the relationship between inflation and unemployment. In 1958, economist A. W. Phillips published an article describing what he observed to be the inverse relationship between inflation and unemployment; subsequently, the “Phillips curve” became a central concept in macroeconomic analysis and policymaking. But today's Phillips curve is not the same as the original one from fifty years ago; the economy, our understanding of price setting behavior, the determinants of inflation, and the role of monetary policy have evolved significantly since then. In this book, some of the top economists working today reexamine the theoretical and empirical validity of the Phillips curve in its more recent specifications. The contributors consider such questions as what economists have learned about price and wage setting and inflation expectations that would improve the way we use and formulate the Phillips curve, what the Phillips curve approach can teach us about inflation dynamics, and how these lessons can be applied to improving the conduct of monetary policy.

Book Synopsis Happiness and Economics by : Bruno S. Frey
Download or read book Happiness and Economics written by Bruno S. Frey and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-11-16 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Curiously, economists, whose discipline has much to do with human well-being, have shied away from factoring the study of happiness into their work. Happiness, they might say, is an ''unscientific'' concept. This is the first book to establish empirically the link between happiness and economics--and between happiness and democracy. Two respected economists, Bruno S. Frey and Alois Stutzer, integrate insights and findings from psychology, where attempts to measure quality of life are well-documented, as well as from sociology and political science. They demonstrate how micro- and macro-economic conditions in the form of income, unemployment, and inflation affect happiness. The research is centered on Switzerland, whose varying degrees of direct democracy from one canton to another, all within a single economy, allow for political effects to be isolated from economic effects. Not surprisingly, the authors confirm that unemployment and inflation nurture unhappiness. Their most striking revelation, however, is that the more developed the democratic institutions and the degree of local autonomy, the more satisfied people are with their lives. While such factors as rising income increase personal happiness only minimally, institutions that facilitate more individual involvement in politics (such as referendums) have a substantial effect. For countries such as the United States, where disillusionment with politics seems to be on the rise, such findings are especially significant. By applying econometrics to a real-world issue of general concern and yielding surprising results, Happiness and Economics promises to spark healthy debate over a wide range of the social sciences.
