According to this theory, a firm hiring an additional worker creates positive external effects on other firms, as a worker has more income to spend and less time to search for low prices when he is employed than when he is unemployed.

  • Implementing the New Fiscal Policy Activism Alan J. Auerbach Department of Economics University of California Berkeley, CA 9472
    Implementing the New Fiscal Policy Activism Alan J. Auerbach Department of Economics University of California Berkeley, CA 94720-3880 tel: 510-643-0711 fax: 510-643-0413 [email protected] Session: “The Revival of Fiscal Policy” Chair: Martin Feldstein Discussants: Douglas Elmendorf and Janet Yellen Implementing the New Fiscal Policy Activism Alan J. Auerbach * In August 1982, after a year in a deep recession that had several months left to run, Congress passed the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA), scaling back the large Reagan tax cuts that had been enacted just over one year earlier as part of the Economic Recovery Tax Act (ERTA). Legislation over the same period cut near-term federal spending, with reductions in nondefense spending swamping additions to defense spending (Congressional Budget Office 1983, Table 8). Together, the spending reductions and TEFRA were estimated to have increased the fiscal-year 1983 primary surplus by $50 billion, or about 1.5 percent of GDP. During the next U.S. recession, in October 1990, a budget summit meeting of President Bush and Congressional leaders produced legislation aimed at reducing the cumulative deficit by $500 billion over five fiscal years, including $33 billion in fiscal-year 1991. The summit also produced the Budget Enforcement Act (BEA), introducing new budget rules aimed at controlling budget deficits and discretionary spending. As in the previous recession, budget deficits captured the attention of policy makers and strongly influenced their fiscal policy actions. As 2008 drew to a close one year into the most serious U.S. recession at least since 1982, Congress and the incoming Obama administration were moving toward adopting legislation of a fiscal stimulus package of federal tax cuts and expenditure increases that could well exceed 5 percent of GDP, with little apparent influence exerted by fiscal imbalances that, at least prospectively, are much more severe than those that policy makers faced in 1982 or 1990.

Each chapter is devoted to an individual novel and explores its hero's feelings of socio-psychological estrangement on personal and interpersonal levels as well as the role of the train journey which serves to arouse, create or alleviate such feelings. Chapter One deals with Sanshiro (Sanshiro. 1908) by Natsume Soseki and follows the hero on his long train journey from backward Kyushu to progressive Tokyo.

  • The Origins and Development of Financial Markets and Institutions: from the Seventeenth Century to the Present
    This page intentionally left blank The Origins and Development of Financial Markets and Institutions Collectively, mankind has never had it so good despite periodic economic crises of which the current sub-prime crisis is merely the latest example. Much of this success is attributable to the increasing efficiency of the world’s financial institutions as finance has proved to be one of the most important causal factors in economic performance. In a series of original essays, leading financial and economic historians examine how financial innovations from the seventeenth century to the present have continually challenged established institutional arr- angements forcing change and adaptation by governments, financial intermediaries, and financial markets. Where these have been success- ful, wealth creation and growth have followed. When they failed, growth slowed and sometimes economic decline has followed. These essays illustrate the difficulties of coordinating financial innovations in order to sustain their benefits for the wider economy, a theme that will be of interest to policy makers as well as economic historians. JEREMY ATACK is Professor of Economics and Professor of History at Vanderbilt University. He is also a research associate with the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) and has served as co-editor of the Journal of Economic History. He is co-author of A New Economic View of American History (1994). LARRY NEAL is Emeritus Professor of Economics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he was founding director of the European Union Center.

  • Should the Randomistas (Continue To) Rule?
    Should the Randomistas (Continue to) Rule? Martin Ravallion Abstract The rising popularity of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in development applications has come with continuing debates on the pros and cons of this approach. The paper revisits the issues. While RCTs have a place in the toolkit for impact evaluation, an unconditional preference for RCTs as the “gold standard” is questionable. The statistical case is unclear on a priori grounds; a stronger ethical defense is often called for; and there is a risk of distorting the evidence-base for informing policymaking. Going forward, pressing knowledge gaps should drive the questions asked and how they are answered, not the methodological preferences of some researchers. The gold standard is the best method for the question at hand. Keywords: Randomized controlled trials, bias, ethics, external validity, ethics, development policy JEL: B23, H43, O22 Working Paper 492 August 2018 www.cgdev.org Should the Randomistas (Continue to) Rule?
