- 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.
