Classical Economists
Most economists believe classical theory
describes the world in the long run, but not
the short run.
In the short run, changes in nominal variables

The General Theory of Employment,
Interest, and Money (1936) is a book written and
published by John Maynard Keynes. This was written in
response to the policies and theories that couldn’t explain why
the great depression was so deep and lasted for so long. This
book basically invented macro economics and was as
influential as Adam Smith’s Wealth of Nations.
He wrote the first theories that tried to
explain why things like the great depression
can happen, why the economy doesn’t
always simply go back to the “long run”

AD/AS Model
This part of the curve
assumes that prices and
wages are fixed until full
employment is reached.
There is spare capacity
in the economy, the price
level is stable, and real
output can expand
without adding any
inflation.

2.) Price changes can be sticky
Theories to explain slope of SRAS
In each there is some type
of market imperfection
This part about the slope
has been but into a separate
PPT, this section is not on
the AS test, (it’s on the A
level test) but still useful
for a complete
understanding.

- The same factors in the equation can
also change things in the short run.
Example:
- Higher population (shift LRAS right)
also means more workers available
today. (shift SRAS right)

Aggregate Supply is:
LRAS + SRAS
Aggregate Supply is:
Classical zone
Economy’s resources
already are fully used so
only prices increase
Intermediate zone
Increase in GDP can lead
to an increase of inflation
too.
Keynesian zone
So an increase in GDP
wouldn’t mean an increase
in inflation.
So combining
these two curves
into one single
curve. The
economy typically
is in the
intermediate zone
all the time
