We show that economic theory delivers such a prediction only in special cases. As an empirical matter, inflation is significantly positively related to the size of government mainly when periods of war and peace are compared. We find a weak positive peacetime time series correlation between inflation and the size of government and a negative cross-country correlation of inflation with non-defense spending.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51961404129568,"sku":"NEW1288715994","price":18.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/finance-and-economics-discussion-series-inflation-and-the-size-of-government-1288715994","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
