The results show that the persistence of wage inflation may have changed over the 1980s for some countries, but that this experience was not unique to ERM membership (although the time profile of the persistence parameter for some ERM member countries corresponds with policy shifts related to ERM membership). Furthermore, only a few countries show a decline in the persistence of unemployment in the 1980s.

John Elliot Cairnes and the ‘Rehabilitation’ of the Classical Wage Fund Doctrine 约翰·艾略特·凯恩斯与古典工资基金理论的“复兴”

In contrast with this standard textbook appraisal of Cairnes, the Jevons–Marshall–Vint thesis contends that, in attempting to revitalize the doctrine, Cairnes in fact explained away so much of what characterized it that its final form bore little resemblance to the doctrine held by his classical predecessors. In this paper we dispute the Jevons–Marshall–Vint thesis and argue that Cairnes’s recasting of the doctrine did fit entirely within the classical framework. Why Cairnes should have rallied in support of a doctrine by then widely condemned, partly because of Mill’s alleged retraction of it and partly because of newly emerging ideas on wages and unions, is not difficult to explain. The recurring economic stagnation in Ireland, which acted as a bulwark against industrialization there, together with the social, moral and economic dilemma created by the growth of trade unionism in Britain, presented political economists with a particular set of problems. For these, as Cairnes saw it, classical political economy, as a coherent method of analysis, provided the best hope of showing the way towards possible remedies.","PeriodicalId":83172,"journal":{"name":"The Manchester school of economic and social studies","volume":"37 1","pages":"396-417"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75335442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis builds on the distinction between portfolio decisions on the one hand, and production and spending decisions on the other. Two prominent Keynesian theories of liquidity preference, those of J. Tobin and J. R. Hicks, are assessed. It is argued that while both of these theories offer illuminating insights into particular aspects of Keynes's monetary thought, they must be qualified in respect of their bearing on the theory of liquidity preference.

It is important to check the specification of ECMs using diagnostic tests. Monte Carlo evidence is reported that shows that the finite sample significance levels of such tests can be sensitive to the method used to estimate long-run coefficients that yield the error-correction term of the ECM. Estimates of long-run coefficients based upon autoregressive-distributed lag (ADL) models are recommended. The applicability of diagnostic checks to ADL models for integrated variables is examined. An indirect approach to obtaining asymptotically valid checks is proposed.

The model exhibits the property of a variable elasticity of firm demand: as a firm's market share increases, it faces increasingly inelastic demand. Price/cost margins therefore increase as market share rises. Market conduct is described using conjectural variations. The model has a flexible functional formulation and is particularly suitable for time-series estimation. The authors illustrate its use by investigating the structure of market competition in pricing strategies between domestic and importing firms in different sectors of U.S. industry during the 1980s.

The government and the central bank are therefore engaged in a non-cooperative game. It is shown that a leftist government produces higher inflation, but contrary to the earlier results, lower output than a rightist government in all election and non-election periods. A leftist government also tax and spend more than a rightist government. The model produces both partisan business and budget cycles due to the timing of elections. Partisan budget cycles are a novel concept and are analyses of post-election fiscal movements as opposed to the pre-election analyses in political budget cycles literature.

For both data sets comprising k interest rates the authors find that the rank of the cointegrating space is (k - 1); but they can only accept that the cointegrating parameter estimates are of the form (-1, 1, 0,...) etc. when considering bilateral combinations of interest rates. When the authors test the joint null that the set of (k - 1) spreads forms a basis for the cointegration space, this is rejected. However, the point estimates of the cointegration parameters are close to unity and there is no diminution in outside sample forecasting performance of the ECM equations when the spread restrictions are imposed. On balance, one might conclude that the EH is not grossly at variance with the data.
