通货膨胀、制裁和产业政策
关于经济思想混乱的思考

詹姆斯·K·加尔布雷斯是美国著名的左翼经济学家之一，他研究了美国和欧洲的经济政策辩论：通货膨胀导致欧洲实际工资损失，也导致企业成本上升，尤其是工业企业。然而，美国控制通货膨胀的速度更快，拜登政府通过了《通胀削减法案》，制定了一揽子基础设施投资以及生态转型补贴计划。但这是需要的新形式的产业政策吗？加尔布雷斯持怀疑态度。
另一方面，在欧洲，“去工业化”的幽灵已经开始出现，这在很大程度上是由于能源价格和总体生产成本的上涨。欧洲经济如何应对这一问题？迄今为止的计划不过是沧海一粟。需要做些什么才能实现繁荣的经济，让所有船只都受益，而不仅仅是豪华游艇？正义、创新和生态转型——它们能结合在一起吗？

詹姆斯·加尔布雷斯是美国经济学家。他目前是林登·约翰逊公共事务学院和德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校政府系的教授。他还是巴德学院利维经济研究所的高级学者，也是 2011 年成立的世界经济协会执行委员会的成员。

Robert Misik in conversation with James Galbraith

INFLATION, SANCTIONS AND INDUSTRIAL POLICY
Thoughts on the Disorder in Economic Thought
 
James K. Galbraith, one of the leading left-wing American economists, examines the economic policy debates in the USA and Europe: inflation has led to real wage losses in Europe, but also to rising costs for companies, particularly in industry.

However, the USA has been quicker to get inflation under control and, with the Biden administration's “Inflation Reduction Act”, has put together a package of investments in infrastructure as well as subsidies for ecological transformation. But is this the new form of industrial policy that is needed? Galbraith is skeptical.

In Europe, on the other hand, the spectre of “de-industrialization” is already being raised, not least due to the rise in energy prices and production costs in general. How can the European economy respond to this? The programs to date are little more than a drop in the ocean. What needs to be done to achieve a prosperous economy that lifts all boats, not just the luxury yachts? Justice, innovation and ecological transformation – do they go together?

James Galbraith is an American economist. He is currently a professor at the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs and at the Department of Government, University of Texas at Austin. He is also a Senior Scholar with the Levy Economics Institute of Bard College and part of the executive committee of the World Economics Association, created in 2011.
