Abstract
The NAIRU model is tested in this paper using data for 27 countries.
The results are generally not supportive of the dynamics implied
by the model.
Comments
Some of the results in this paper are also presented in
1999#1, which estimates the inflation costs
had European unemployment been reduced in the 1980s by macro policies.
The tests in the present paper, however, were not reproduced in the
other paper. The present paper has not been published.
The NAIRU model is tested using United States data in
2000#1.
