| Sumario: | The interest in studying specific features of the macroeconomic performance of the country from an analytical perspective has a long history in Argentina. In the 1960s and 1970s a rich body of work investigated salient patterns of economic behavior such as the sharp fluctuations in real activity, inflation and relative prices associated with the varying availability of foreign exchange (stop- go). We revisit such themes, within a framework similar to that employed in the traditional literature, and putting emphasis on the implications of macroeconomic budget constraints. The results inform about conditions for the validity of effects like contractionary devaluations. |
