Re: The long and short of it



I have to second Paul Phillips on this. If the short-run and the long-run
are treated as analytically distinct--so that short-run fluctuations are
determined by completely different factors to long-run growth, and one
is super-imposed on the latter--then I think we lose a great deal. This
leads to the deduction that, for example, the Great Depression didn't
matter--it was just a cyclical thing and (some time) after it we got
back to the average again.
Cheers,
Steve Keen
