Excessive disinflation and the flattening of the Phillips curve are recently popular phenomena in many advanced economies. In the environment of low inflation, the fading relationship between the price dynamics and the adjustments in the domestic real activity is vigorously investigated for...

A statistically significant relationship between the unemployment gap and inflation can be found for a clear majority of OECD countries, but the magnitude of the effect is typically weak. A corollary is that the effect of labour market slack on inflation can often be dominated by other shocks,...

This paper studies inflation persistence with time-varying coefficient autoregressions for twelve central European countries,in comparison with the United States and the euro area. Inflation persistence tends to be higher in times of high inflation. Since the oil price shocks, inflation...

Recent empirical research on the New Keynesian Phillips Curve (NKPC) does not offer any supporting evidence for its benchmark version in which all firms are forward-looking. There is, however, empirical support for a modified, "hybrid", NPKC, in which only a proportion of the firms that use a...

In questo lavoro utilizziamo i nuovi dati storici di contabilità nazionale per l'Italia nel periodo 1861-2010, ricostruiti dalla Banca d'Italia e dall'Istat, con la collaborazione dell'Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata.” La prima parte consiste in uno studio dettagliato delle...

This paper is devoted to the estimation of the Phillips curve for small open economies with the inclusion of the expected change in the real exchange rate of the ruble. The nonlinear generalized method of moments (CUE GMM) is used as an estimation method. According to the estimates obtained, the...

The Great Moderation is characterized for being a stable period in terms of macroeconomic conditions, specially in inflation. In terms of the sticky information theory, this environment may provide few incentives for agents to update information on inflation and then a new slope of the sticky...
