Force fields, hysteresis and economic equilibria
Article Abstract:
Hysteresis and force of fields concepts of equilibrium in economic systems are examined. The study showed how certain limitations of the force of fields theory like homeostatic equilibria and time reversible trajectories can be addressed by hysteresis. Hysteresis employs non-linearity and heterogeneity to attain equilibrium of economic systems. Thus far, hysteretic equilibria has evolved as an analytical tool for economic systems.

Inflation, productivity and monetary policy: are they related?
Article Abstract:
A contractionary monetary policy will have a positive impact on productivity growth if taken in a long-term basis. This result stems from a trivariate error correction modeling analysis of the relationship among inflation, productivity growth, and monetary policy. While inflation and monetary policy jointly affect productivity growth, monetary policy appears to be a consistent and strong determinant of productivity growth.
