  • 60 Second Adventures in Economics—Number Three:The Phillips Curve.
  • 《60秒经济学探奇》第三节:菲利普斯曲线
  • Bill Phillips was a crocodile hunter and economist from New Zealand,
  • 比尔·菲利普斯是新西兰鳄鱼猎手和经济学家,
  • who spotted that, when employment levels are high, wages rise faster—people have more money to spend,
  • 他发现,就业率水平高时,工资增长更快,人们有更多钱花。
  • so prices go up and so does inflation. And likewise, when unemployment is high,
  • 价格也会增加,通胀增加。相反,失业率高时,
  • the lack of money to spend means that inflation goes down. This became known as the Phillips Curve.
  • 人们花的钱少,通胀减少。这被称为菲利普斯曲线。
  • Governments even set policy by the curve, tolerating the inflation when they spent extra money creating jobs.
  • 政府甚至根据曲线制定政策,在花更多钱创造工作机会时容忍通胀。
  • But they forgot that the workers could also see the effects of the curve.
  • 但政府忘了,工人们也能看到曲线的效果。
  • So, when unemployment went down, they expected inflation and demanded higher wages,
  • 失业率下降后 他们预计会通胀并要求更高工资,
  • causing unemployment to go back up, while inflation remained high.
  • 导致失业率回升,但通胀仍然保持高位。
  • Which is what happened in the 1970s when both inflation and unemployment rose.
  • 这是1970年代通胀和失业率同时上升的情况。
  • Then in the 90s unemployment dropped while inflation stayed low, which all rather took the bend out of Phillips' curve.
  • 然后90年代 失业率下降 通胀保持低位,这些情况都无法用菲利普斯曲线解释。
  • But at least part of Phillips' troublesome trade-off lives on:
  • 但至少,菲利普斯给出的讨厌取舍关系部分还存在:
  • when faster growth and full employment return, you can bet inflation will be along to spoil the party.
  • 高增长和高就业率时,你可以打赌,通胀会出来制造麻烦。
