Knight and Paul R. Masson 2.1 Introduction In recent years, substantial changes in the pattern of fiscal positions of major industrial countries have occurred. From 1981 to 1985, for example, the fiscal deficit of the U.S. federal government is estimated to have risen by 2.8% of the U.S. GNP, while the deficits of central governments in the Federal Republic of Germany and Japan, both of which have implemented medium-term fiscal restraint programs, de- clined by about 0.6% of their GNPs. A better measure of the underlying stance of policy, the fiscal impulse as a percent of GNP cumulated over the years 1981-85, shows a shift in the United States toward expansion by 3% and contractionary shifts of 1.9% in the Federal Republic of Germany and 0.8% in Japan (International Monetary Fund 1985, Ap- pendix table 15).

  • Deflation: Economic Significance, Current Risk, and Policy Responses
    Deflation: Economic Significance, Current Risk, and Policy Responses Craig K. Elwell Specialist in Macroeconomic Policy August 30, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R40512 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Deflation: Economic Significance, Current Risk, and Policy Responses Summary Despite the severity of the recent financial crisis and recession, the U.S. economy has so far avoided falling into a deflationary spiral. Since mid-2009, the economy has been on a path of economic recovery. However, the pace of economic growth during the recovery has been relatively slow, and major economic weaknesses persist. In this economic environment, the risk of deflation remains significant and could delay sustained economic recovery. Deflation is a persistent decline in the overall level of prices. It is not unusual for prices to fall in a particular sector because of rising productivity, falling costs, or weak demand relative to the wider economy. In contrast, deflation occurs when price declines are so widespread and sustained that they cause a broad-based price index, such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI), to decline for several quarters. Such a continuous decline in the price level is more troublesome, because in a weak or contracting economy it can lead to a damaging self-reinforcing downward spiral of prices and economic activity. However, there are also examples of relatively benign deflations when economic activity expanded despite a falling price level. For instance, from 1880 through 1896, the U.S. price level fell about 30%, but this coincided with a period of strong economic growth.

Shoven, editors Volume Publisher: University of Chicago Press Volume ISBN: 0-226-04404-1 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/bern91-2 Conference Date: January 6-7, 1989 Publication Date: January 1991 Chapter Title: National Saving and International Investment Chapter Author: Martin Feldstein, Philippe Bacchetta Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c5992 Chapter pages in book: (p. 201 - 226) 7 National Saving and International Investment Martin Feldstein and Philippe Bacchetta 7.1 Introduction Do tax policies that stimulate a nation’s private saving rate increase its do- mestic capital stock or do the extra savings flow abroad? Does an increase in the corporate tax rate cause an outflow of capital that shifts the burden of that tax increase to labor and land? These were the two key questions that motivated the 1980 Feldstein- Horioka (FH) study of the relation between domestic saving rates and domes- tic investment. FH reasoned that, if domestic saving were added to a world saving pool and domestic investment competed for funds in that same world saving pool, there would be no correlation between a nation’s saving rate and its rate of investment. The statistical evidence showed that, on the contrary, the long-term saving and investment rates of the individual industrialized countries in the OECD are highly correlated. The data were consistent with the view that a sustained one-percentage-point increase in the saving rate in- duced nearly a one-percentage-point increase in the investment rate.

Introduction Since the end of 1970’s -and the success of the New Classical School –, the face of macroeconomics has changed profoundly. On the one hand, the research has turned gradually away from the analysis of the short-term fluctuations to favor a study of the long term determining factors of macroeconomic variables. One has studied the determinants of growth and has interpreted the cycles as fluctuations around these long-term values. On the other hand and in the same movement, one saw setting itself a general equilibrium macroeconomics.

Furthermore, the average saving rate has been rising over time, with much of the increase taking place in the 2000s, so that the aggregate marginal propensity to save exceeds 50%. What really sets China apart from the rest of the world is that the rising aggregate saving has reflected high savings rates in all three sectors – corporate, household and government.

  • Intermediate Macroeconomics: New Keynesian Model
    Intermediate Macroeconomics: New Keynesian Model Eric Sims University of Notre Dame Fall 2012 1 Introduction Among mainstream academic economists and policymakers, the leading alternative to the real business cycle theory is the New Keynesian model. Whereas the real business cycle model features monetary neutrality and emphasizes that there should be no active stabilization policy by govern- ments, the New Keynesian model builds in a friction that generates monetary non-neutrality and gives rise to a welfare justification for activist economic policies. New Keynesian economics is sometimes caricatured as being radically different than real business cycle theory. This caricature is unfair. The New Keynesian model is built from exactly the same core that our benchmark model is { there are optimizing households and firms, who interact in markets and whose interactions give rise to equilibrium prices and allocations. There is really only one fundamental difference in the New Keynesian model relative to the real business cycle model { nominal prices are assumed to be \sticky." By \sticky" I simply mean that there exists some friction that prevents Pt, the money price of goods, from adjusting quickly to changing conditions. This friction gives rise to monetary non-neutrality and means that the competitive equilibrium outcome of the economy will, in general, be inefficient. New Keynesian economics is to be differentiated from \old" Keynesian economics. Old Keyne- sian economics arose out of the Great Depression, adopting its name from John Maynard Keynes. Old Keynesian models were typically much more ad hoc than the optimizing models with which we work and did not feature very serious dynamics.
