This book was released on 1991 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heterodox stabilization programs are more successful in chronic high inflation countries because only there can the benefits from achieving a rapid initial reduction in inflation outweigh the costs of tampering with price and wage controls. While the heterodox phase is effective in blocking inflation initially, success depends on a long- term commitment to the orthodox part of the program and the readiness to accept the unavoidable costs of disinflation.

Download or read book Price Controls and Electoral Cycles written by Pierre-Richard Agénor and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1993-11-01 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies the interactions between electoral considerations and the imposition of price controls by opportunistic policymakers. The analysis shows that a policy cycle emerges in which price controls are imposed in periods leading to the election, and removed immediately afterwards. The shape of the cycle is shown to depend on the periodicity of elections, the relative weight attached by the public to inflation as opposed to the macroeconomic distortions associated with price controls, the nature of wage contracts, and the degree of uncertainty about the term in office.
