The Great Recession Is Over: What’s Next, and What Does It Mean for Learning?Human Capital Media
The good news is that the Great Recession of 2008-2009 is over and economic recovery is under way. The bad news is that business cycles are still very much alive, meaning the current recovery will eventually be followed by another recession. After sharing the current economic outlook, Dave Vance will talk about the history and nature of business cycles and when and why we might expect the next recession. He will conclude with the implications for business and for learning and development, including suggestions for short- and long-term planning.
The Inclusive Prosperity Commission is a major policy project of the Chifley Research Centre, the think tank of
the Australian Labor Party. Since its launch in 2014, the Commission has been exploring the threat to Australia’s future economic growth presented
by growing inequality – and new policies to respond.
At the heart of the matter is a simple premise: economies grow faster when everyone shares in the growth. More and more evidence now shows that rising inequality is a threat to economic growth, while only broadly shared prosperity can be sustained in the long-term. Inclusive prosperity means embracing the economic opportunities of our time and finding ways to ensure they serve the vast majority of society.
The Commission’s task has been to develop a new economic policy framework to guide Australia beyond the global financial crisis and the peak of the mining boom.
Co-chaired by Wayne Swan MP and Michael Cooney (Executive Director of the Chifley Research Centre), the Commission’s membership includes Cameron Clyne, David Hetherington, Dave Oliver, Peter Whiteford, Rebecca Huntley, Stephen Koukoulas, Tony Nicholson and Verity Firth. Amanda Robbins of Equity Economics has led the Commission’s staff.
This report will sit alongside new analysis from the IMF, World Bank and influential publications such as Thomas Piketty’s ‘Capital in the Twenty-First Century’ which point to the need for action against rising inequality.
The Chifley Research Centre is grateful for the contribution of the Center for American Progress as a project partner.
To maintain a strong economy, the federal government seeks to accomplish three policy goals: stable prices, full employment, and economic growth. In addition to these three policy goals, the federal government has other objectives to maintain sound economic policy. These include low or stable interest rates, a balanced budget (or at least a budget with a reduced deficit from the previous budget), and a trade balance with other countries.
When prices for goods and services increase sharply, the value of money is reduced, and it costs more to buy the same things. This condition is called inflation. When inflation is kept low, prices remain at the same level. Circumstances beyond the government's control can affect prices. A prolonged drought in the corn belt or an early freeze that hits the orange crop in Florida creates shortages that lead to higher prices. Higher prices for certain critical goods, such as oil, can create inflationary prices throughout the economy.

As part of its overall mission of promoting the well-being of humanity throughout the world, The Rockefeller Foundation developed the goal of advancing inclusive economies. The framing of this goal is deliberate: the word inclusive stresses the need to overcome disadvantage while the choice of economies versus growth suggests the need to consider all dimensions of economic life. This executive summary outlines efforts to develop a framework to better understand and measure the characteristics of an inclusive economy. It includes:
• The evolution of the concept of an inclusive economy
• Key lessons learned from an analysis of indicator initiatives
related to measuring an inclusive economy
• A recommended indicator framework composed of 5 broad
characteristics, 15 sub-categories, and 57 indicators
• Implications for future work

Fiscal policy is the means by which a government adjusts its spending levels and tax rates to monitor and influence a nation's economy.
It is the sister strategy to monetary policy through which a central bank influences a nation's money supply.
These two policies are used in various combinations to direct a country's economic goals.
Here we look at how fiscal policy works, how it must be monitored and how its implementation may affect different people in an economy.

2. Lesson Objectives
1. To be able to distinguish between economic based
policy and non-economic policy (KNOWLEDGE)
2. To begin to understand the effects of government
conflicts (APPLICATION)
5. The establishment of policy
Government now accounts for nearly 40% of all
economic activity
Governments have a wide range
of economic and non-economic
policy objectives
Many of these will involve conflicts – cannot have
everything!
Necessity of finding acceptable balances
6. Example 1
Inflation v Growth:
Economic
growth may be desirable to help improve
the wealth and welfare of the population at large
But:
Too
much economic growth
may lead to inflation
7. Example 2
Employment versus Inflation:
Policies
to boost employment
may be seen as desirable
But:
Could
trigger economic growth that is too fast –
leads to inflation?
8. Example 3
Interest Rates versus Growth:
Government
might want to stimulate economic
growth by seeing
a reduction in interest rates
But:
Lowering
pressures
interest rates may trigger inflationary
9. Example 4
International Aid versus Domestic Priorities:
There may be an imperative to increase aid abroad
to combat poverty, starvation, etc.
But:
There are plenty of domestic pressures –
homelessness, poverty, etc.
10. Example 5
Economic Growth versus Sustainability:
Economic growth may be desirable to help improve the wealth
and welfare of all
But:
Economic growth has effects on the environment and on social
issues – stress, divorce rates, etc.
11. Example 6
Regulation versus Market forces:
Governments might see a need to regulate business and
the economy
to achieve various social, economic
and political objectives
But:
Greater regulation restricts the functioning of the market
possibly leading to
the inefficient allocation of resources
12. Example 7
Public Sector Spending versus Tax Cuts:
There may be a demand for improved public sector
services – health education, etc.
But:
Governments
might also want to pursue tax cuts –
not only politically popular but also helps stimulate
the economy and gives people more freedom of
choice
13. Example 8
Welfare Benefits versus Incentives:
There is a need
to provide welfare support for those who cannot, through no
fault of their own, help themselves
But:
The welfare ‘safety net’ can lead to people relying on it and not
having the incentives to help themselves
