Beretta, Edoardo

In: List Forum für Wirtschafts- und Finanzpolitik, 2021, vol. 46, no. 3, p. 359-377

Obwohl man im Zuge der COVID-19-Pandemie aufgrund des dramatischen Einbruchs aller Wirtschaftsprognosen weltweit bislang von rezessivdeflationären Auswirkungen ausgegangen ist, lassen sich Inflationsrisiken keineswegs ausschließen. Welche Folgeeffekte kann die Kombination aus milliardenhohen Liquiditätsspritzen bei starkem Produktionsrückgang sowie streng einzuhaltenden (und ebenso...

We exploit data from 13,338 municipal electoral cycles where incumbents seek reelection between 1993 and...
