Highly recommend buying Mark Blyth & Nicolò Fraccaroli tremendous new book showcasing how inflation truly operates, it’s varied effect on the multitude of actors in the economy and what public leaders can do to offset the harms it causes, which I reviewed for Booksin5 below! 1/5

Considered to be 2 of the profession’s leading researchers & commentators as they regularly make appearances in the popular media explaining the political economy of the modern era, the authors are affiliated with Brown University as professor & visiting scholar respectively 2/5

Certain economists crafted a message that has resonated with their peers & the public about inflation, it’s causes & what must be done to combat it but the book details that there are different types & the way that it is measured influences the response from those in power 3/5

The primary tool used to tame inflation is interest rates but the tradeoff involves more unemployment with the authors highlighting why it is important to view the increase in the prices of goods & services over time as a situation that can be exploited through storytelling 4/5

Although there is a existential fear of hyperinflation wrecking society, it is unlikely to occur but the narrative is weaponized in the war amongst the classes and the book concludes with a meditation on the necessity of being informed about how the economy has transformed 5/5
