The Anatomy of Double-Digit Inflation in the 1970's --Contributors --Author Index --Subject IndexThis volume presents the latest thoughts of a brilliant group of young economists on one of the most persistent economic problems facing the United States and the world, inflation. Rather than attempting an encyclopedic effort or offering specific policy recommendations, the contributors have emphasized the diagnosis of problems and the description of events that economists most thoroughly understand. Reflecting a dozen diverse views-many of which challenge established orthodoxy-they illuminate the economic and political processes involved in this important issue.Project report (National Bureau of Economic Research)Inflation (Finance)Inflation (Finance)United Statesinflation, economy, finance, economics, gold standard, dollar, stabilization, banking, pension, markets, capital taxation, rate of return, corporate profits, unemployment, monetary, policy, government, regulation, intervention, financial crisis, history, politics, nonfiction, labor, investment, taxes, savings, wealth, poverty, class, inequality, profit, risk.Inflation (Finance)Inflation (Finance)332.4/1Hall Robert Ernest1943-264868MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782820703321Inflation696359UNINA
