Some Intranational Evidence On Output-Inflation Trade-Offs, Gregory Hess, Kwanho Shin

CMC Faculty Publications and Research

In a seminal paper, Robert E. Lucas, Jr. provided the theoretical relationship between aggregate demand and real output based on relative price confusion at the individual market level. Subsequently, an alternative New Keynesian aggregate supply relationship was derived and it was demonstrated that the two theories can be distinguished on the basis of how both the rate of inflation and the volatility of relative prices affect its slope.
