Inflation regimes and hyperinflation: a Post-Keynesian/structuralist typology
基于后凯恩斯主义和结构主义文献，提出通胀体制的类型学，区分低、中、高三种通胀体制，并定义恶性通胀，强调分配冲突和指数化的作用。
Abstract The article proposes a typology of inflation regimes based on the Post-Keynesian and structuralist literature. We identify three separate regimes: the low, moderate and high inflation regimes. Hyperinflation is also defined and described. Each regime presents different characteristics. We identify the key role played by the distributive conflict between workers and capitalists in all the regimes, the role played by the indexation of wages on domestic prices in the moderate and high inflation regimes and the specific roles played by the widespread indexation on a short-term basis in the high inflation regime. Hyperinflation is explained by self-fulfilling prophecies about exchange rate variations and by the rejection of the domestic currency.
