摘要:
This paper analyzes the impact of public sector price increases combined with employment cuts in a dynamic optimizing model. If the government adopts a tough layoff policy, the real wage is highly flexible and the reforms are perceived to be permanent, there is a strong presumption that real output will be higher and inflation lower over all time horizons. Problems may arise during the adjustment process, however, when the reforms are not credible or the real wage adjusts slowly to clear the labor market.
