Topic
The Japanese Economy in the 2010s
Speaker
Linus YAMANE(Pitzer College)
Abstract
The Japanese economy made limited progress in the 2010s. Only in comparison to the "lost 20 years," the economic performance "felt" like a relief. The public sector took on enormous risks during the decade because the private sector would not. The government pushed monetary policy and fiscal policy to the limit with only a modicum of success because aggregate supply constraints were more significant than aggregate demand constraints. Japan now faces "secular stagnation" with very limited policy options.
