Shocks
• Shocks to the controls – Especially aggregate demand.
• Consumer confidence and Fear • Investors confidence
• Shocks to the BB schedule – Productivity and growth
• New technologies, Education, Health, Managerial Improvements
– Prices • Change in the price of our exports or imports
– External Shocks • Natural Disasters • Drop of international demand for our products
• Shocks to the NN schedule – Labor market reforms – Immigration

Domestic Demand = C+I+G
BBNN: Increases in productivity
Technological improvements increase the productivity of workers.
At the same salaries and demand, the country is able to produce more! So, we were before in equilibrium but now we have a surplus in the CA
The economy remains in the same place but now it has a surplus

Through time, along the equilibrium path, the economy ends up with higher wages and demand. This is the natural adjustment mechanism.

e/w
Domestic Demand = C+I+G
BBNN: Increases in price of exports
Increases in the price of our exports, increases their value. So, our exports rise as in the case of growth, but for a different reason
At the same salaries and demand, the country is able to produce more! So, we were before in equilibrium but now we have a surplus in the CA
The economy remains in the same place but now it has a surplus

e/w
Domestic Demand = C+I+G
BBNN: Increases in price of exports
Through time, along the equilibrium path, the economy ends up with higher wages and demand. This is the natural adjustment mechanism.
But this salaries increase because the exports are wanted by foreigners, not because our workers are better
This is the Dutch Disease

BBNN: Natural Disaster
e/w
Domestic Demand = C+I+G
Assume that we have a natural disaster that destroys capital but has no impact on lives
Because the country has less capital production falls. For the same demand, the country will need to import goods, and is able to export less.
CA turns into deficit During the adjustment unemployment will increase, and salaries need to fall (or currency needs to depreciate)

BBNN: Immigration of workers
e/w
Domestic Demand = C+I+G
When the immigrants arrive, they become part of the unemployed pool
At the same demand and the same wage in dollars we have a situation of unemployment
In the end, the wages in dollars need to decline. Either nominal wages fall, or there is a depreciation

Sustainability
• Social and political sustainability
– The probability of social unrest, or political tensions, is associated with the standard of living.
– Higher wages in dollars in general produce higher standards of living.
• Environmental sustainability
– The idea of this restriction is to highlight that higher consumption in general tends to increase its negative environmental impact

How to solve the conflicts?
• What do I like about this model?
– In a very simple framework we highlight how social, political, environmental, and economic equilibriums might not agree with each other.
– What are the solutions?

Moving the social peace
• In general the social peace shifts upward for two reasons
– Getting used to Misery
• If the individuals are subject to misery during a prolong period of time, they will tend to accept it as “normal”
– Coordinating Device
• “What is the reason why would you be willing to sacrifice something that is yours for the good of the country”.
