Inflationary processes are closely linked to wage-price spirals - such spirals can be triggered by many factors, including natural resource price shocks, depreciation and inflationary demand. Empirically, the correlation between changes in nominal unit labour costs and the price level is strong...

This paper examines the relationship between aggregate demand and the wage share in the US using a vector autoregression methodology. It finds evidence of Goodwin-cycle effects – that is, profit-led demand and a profit-squeeze effect – in baseline estimates using assumptions traditionally...
