Natural Rate Of Unemployment Phillips Curve

The governments of most developed economies now
appear to be primarily concerned with inflation
and how to keep it down as opposed to maintaining
full employment or restricting the money supply.
However, unlike in other areas of the economy, the
actions the government can take to control
inflation are quite limited. This is because
people and firms behave according to their
expectations not only of inflation but also of
what they consider the government will do. As a
result of these implications...
