In this volume, sixteen distinguished economists analyze the appropriateness of low inflation as a goal for monetary policy and discuss possible strategies for reducing inflation. Section I discusses the consequences of inflation. These papers analyze inflation's impact on the tax system, labor market flexibility, equilibrium unemployment, and the public's sense of well-being. Section II considers the obstacles facing central bankers in achieving low inflation. These papers study the precision of estimates of equilibrium unemployment, the sources of the high inflation of the 1970's, and the use of non-traditional indicators in policy formation. The papers in section III consider how institutions can be designed to promote successful monetary policy, and the importance of institutions to the performance of policy in the United States, Germany, and other countries. This timely volume should be read by anyone who studies or conducts monetary policy.Studies in business cycles ;no. 30.Inflation (Finance)CongressesMonetary policyCongressesElectronic books.Inflation (Finance)Monetary policy332.4/1Romer Christina887047Romer David116990National Bureau of Economic Research.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451451703321Reducing inflation1980881UNINA01280nam 2200337Ia 450 99639418510331620221108100843.0(CKB)3810000000007251(EEBO)2240884934(OCoLC)17151324(EXLCZ)99381000000000725119871130d1656 uy |laturbn||||a|bb|Quæstiones in philosophia discutiendæ sub Carolo Chauncæo[electronic resource] SS.
