A recent model by Akerlof, Dickens and Perry (2000) (ADP) predicts that low inflation may cause unemployment to persist … the Swedish inflation target from 2 to 4% would bring long-run unemployment down by two percentage points, to 2 ….0-2.5%. EMU membership, with inflation at the average of the present 0-2% band, would raise unemployment to around 6%. Membership …

Increasing returns are an incontrovertible fact since Adam Smith hailed them as the very originators of wealth, yet they play havoc with general equilibrium. They fit, in marked contrast, nicely into the structural axiomatic framework. This indicates that it is worthwhile to replace the...

This paper has provided an empirical evidence to support the existence of the Phillips curve in the case of the Dominican Republic. The Phillips curve is estimated using data over the last forty years and includes a role for supply factors. The most striking feature of the model is the strong...

expectations show that this Phillips curve is relatively robust and that an unemployment rate of close to two percent is consistent … that a considerably higher inflation rate, of around four percent, is necessary to yield a lowest sustainable unemployment …. Moreover, if the inflation-unemployment trade-off differs widely across the member states of the EMU, then a single inflation …
