Abstract

This paper presents a history of aggregate demand and supply shocks spanning 1900 – 2016 for the United Kingdom. Sign restrictions derived from a workhorse Keynesian model are used to identify the signs of those shocks. We compare the 30 largest shocks implied by a vector autoregressive model in unemployment and inflation with the narrative historical record. Our approach provides a new perspective on well-known events in economic history. We highlight two episodes of particular interest: an aggregate supply shock in the late 1920s, which we attribute to changes in the bargaining power of labor, and positive aggregate demand shocks in the mid-1970s, which we attribute to fiscal policy.

1900年至2016年英国总需求和总供给冲击的历史
本文介绍了1900年至2016年英国总需求和总供给冲击的历史。来自凯恩斯模型的信号限制被用来识别这些冲击的信号。我们将失业率和通货膨胀的矢量自回归模型所隐含的30次最大冲击与叙事历史记录进行比较。我们的方法为经济史上著名的事件提供了一个新的视角。我们特别强调了两个事件:20世纪20年代末的总供给冲击,我们将其归因于劳动力议价能力的变化,以及20世纪70年代中期的正总需求冲击,我们将其归因于财政政策。
