Policy, Timing and Time Use
Update: 2025-10-31
Description
Professor Valerie Ramey takes us through the conundrum of why post-war unemployment did not surge in the USA. We then discuss the economic effects of fiscal policy and how the timing of spending (and spending announcements) matters to the measuring the outcome. We finish with a discussion on time use and consider whether leisure time has actually increased as is generally believed over the twentieth century, and review the link with how home production is measured.
