In 2015, the external setting was again adverse for Latin America: growth continued to shift from emerging countries to developed countries; fears about the Chinese economy were on the rise; there was an excess supply on the oil and other commodities markets; and there was a real possibility of the Fed putting an end to its monetary stimulus. This led to a crash in the prices of the raw materials exported by the region. The region’s economies also faced a decline in important external financial conditions. So, the growth of Latin America in 2015 was estimated to be -0.3%. In Chile, the economy grew 2.1% in 2015, similar to the growth in 2014 (1.9%). The worsening outlook abroad contributed to the slow growth, with a drop in the price of copper from US$3.11/lb in 2014 to US$2.50/lb in 2015. Also adversely impacting were the rise in taxes under the tax reform passed the previous year and the great uncertainty associated with the proposed labor reforms and new constitution. This prolonged the low level of confidence seen in the private sector that prevented a recovery in domestic demand and braked the export effort driven by the strong real devaluation in the peso (14.4%).

Kehoe University of Minnesota, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, and National Bureau of Economic Research Carlos Gustavo Machicado Instituto de Estudios Avanzados en Desarrollo (INESAD) José Peres-Cajías Escuela de la Producción y la Competitividad, Universidad Católica Boliviana “San Pablo” ABSTRACT___________________________________________________________________ After the economic reforms that followed the National Revolution of the 1950s, Bolivia seemed positioned for sustained growth. Indeed, it achieved unprecedented growth during 1960–1977. Mistakes in economic policies, especially the rapid accumulation of debt and a fixed exchange rate policy during the 1970s, led to a debt crisis that began in 1977. From 1977 to 1986, Bolivia lost almost all the gains in GDP per capita that it had achieved since 1960. In 1986, Bolivia started to grow again, interrupted only by the financial crisis of 1998–2002, which was the result of a drop in the availability of external financing. Bolivia has grown since 2002, but government policies since 2006 are reminiscent of the policies of the 1970s that led to the debt crisis, in particular, the accumulation of external debt and the

  • Could the United States Experience Hyperinflation?
    COULD THE UNITED STATES EXPERIENCE HYPERINFLATION? A question being asked more often these days is “Are we and much of the rest of the world headed for increasing inflation rates and possibly hyperinflation as experienced in recent years by Zimbabwe and in the 1920s in Germany”? The answer is that increasing inflation is an almost certainty considering the rising government expenditures for defense, infrastructure and social services accompanied by an insufficient tax revenue base to pay for these services. The fact that money is no longer backed by material things such as gold has given the central government and especially the Federal Reserve in the United States an almost carte blanche opportunity to create money out of thin air in order to pay for mandated government needs. This trend has been on the increase and has recently reached a dangerous level due mainly to the recent actions by Fed Chairman Ben (“Just print more Dollars and drop them from Helicopters”) Bernanke. His attempts to stimulate a flagging economy with several quantitative easing efforts involving the creation of trillion of un-backed dollars of paper currency have raised the specter of increasing (and possibly uncontrollable) inflation in coming years. To demonstrate the seriousness of this situation, I show you a graph of the United States Adjusted Monetary Base over the past 25 years as reported by the Federal Reserve Bank of St.Louis- Note the sharp jump in the monetary base starting with quantitative easing QE1 and followed by QE2. This increase in dollars floating around the economy here and in the rest of the world needs only the spark of increasing velocity of money exchange to trigger a major inflation period.

  • Hyperinflation in Venezuela: How to Address the Problem
    Hyperinflation in Venezuela: How to Address the Problem Sean Gregory Reilly HMN 679HA/B Special Honors in the Department of Humanities The University of Texas at Austin May 2020 Brian Roberts Department of Government Supervising Professor Kenneth Greene Department of Government Second Reader Abstract Hyperinflation in Venezuela: How to Address the Problem Sean Gregory Reilly, BA in Humanties & Economics The University of Texas at Austin, 2020 Supervisor: Brian Roberts Massive amounts of hyperinflation have been ravaging Venezuela for years. Forbes reported that the annual inflation rate for Venezuela in 2018 was 80,000%. To put this in perspective, an inflation rate this high doubles prices nearly every two weeks. Inflation rates this high haven’t been seen since Zimbabwe in the 2000s and Germany in the 1920s. Venezuela’s high inflation levels are due to the sum total effect of relying too heavily on imports for basic goods, depending on oil as its main export, inefficient government industries, and governmental corruption. While this would have been enough to warrent a thesis on its own, there is more to the story of hyperinflation in Venezuela. Beneath the current economic crisis is a political power struggle. On one side is the current President Nicolas Maduro, head of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela. Challenging him is the interim President of the National Assembly Juan Guaido, from the Popular Will party. To complicate matters further, the United States officially recognized Guaido as the legitimate president of Venezuela. The intersectionality of econoimcs and politics is what intrigued me about Venezuela’s situation. As I started research, I learned that the easiest method for fighting hyperinflation, dollarization, is politically unavailable to President Maduro.
