and the major targets of economic policies. These phenomena
have always been a reason for great debates, and well-known
concepts like the Phillips Curve, the NAIRU or Okun’s Law have
been developed to explain their linkages. The following study
investigates these concepts in more detail on a theoretical,

The economic forecasts for Germany are currently in free fall – unfortunately only after the economic
