Abstract
Against the background of the failures of stabilization policies in most developed countries during the 1970s, it seems natural that a more critical attitude towards such policies has gradually evolved. The skepticism has usually focused on the long-run effects of stabilization policy, which is the theme of this conference.
I would like to thank Erik Dahmén, Thorvaldur Gylfason, Assar Lindbeck, Torsten Persson, Michael Schmid and Staffan Viotti for helpful comments.
