前言

　　Since February 2006， Ben Bemanke has been chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Federal ethics rules prohibited him from making substantive contributions to the sixth edition. Dean Croushore， associate professor of economics and Rigsby Fellow at the University of Richmond， has helped prepare this new edition as a coauthor. Dean has been closely associated with Macro- economics since the first edition， having written or co-written the Instructors Manual and Test Bank for the first through fifth editions， the Study Guide for the third through fifth editions， and having assisted with manuscript preparation in previous editions， taking a major role in the fifth edition. Dean has been able to draw on his fourteen years of experience at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia， twelve of which as head of the Macroeconomics Section， as well as his teaching experience at Penn State University， Temple University， the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania， Johns Hopkins University， Princeton University， and the University of Richmond， to help keep the book fresh， applied to real-world economic developments， and appealing to students.　　In the sixth edition， we have added new material to keep the text up-to-date， while building on the strengths that underlie the books lasting appeal to Instructors and students， Including. Real-world applications. A perennial challenge for instructors is to help students make active use of the economic ideas developed in the text. The rich variety of applications in this book shows by example how economic concepts can be put to work in explaining real-world issues such as the contrasting behavior of unemployment in the United States and Europe， the slowdown and revival in productivity growth， the challenges facing the Social Security system and the Federal budget， the impact of globalization on the U.S. economy， and alternative approaches to making monetary policy. The sixth edition offers new applications as well as updates of the best applications and analyses of previous editions.

章节摘录

　　Measuring the cyclical behavior of labor utilization is more difficult, but vari ous studies have found evidence that the utilization rate of labor is also procyclical. For example, Jon Fay and James Medoff of Harvard University sent question naires to large manufacturing enterprises, asking about employment and produc tion during the most recent downturn experienced at each plant. Fay and Medoff found that during a downturn the average plant surveyed cut production by 31％ and cut its total use of bfuecollar hours to 23％ below the normal level. Plant man agers estimated that total hours could have been reduced by an additional 6％ of the normal level without further reducing output. Of this 6％ of normal hours, about half （3％ of normal hours） were typically assigned to various types of useful work, including equipment maintenance and overhaul, painting, cleaning, reworking output, and training. The remaining 3％ of normal hours were assigned to "make work" and other unproductive activities. These numbers suggest that firms utilize labor less intensively during recessions.　　The tendency to use workers less intensively in recessions than in expansions has been referred to as labor hoarding. Labor hoarding occurs when, because of the costs of firing and hiring workers, firms retain some workers in a recession that they would otherwise lay off. Firms keep these workers on the payroll to avoid the costs of laying off workers and then rehiring them or hiring and training new workers when the economy revives. Hoarded labor either works less hard during the recession （there is less to do） or is put to work doing tasks, such as maintaining equipment, that arent measured as part of the firms output. When the economy revives, the hoarded labor goes back to working in the normal way. In much the same way, it may not pay the restaurant owner to send her workers home between the hmch and dinner rush hours, with the result that restaurant workers are less productive during the slow afternoon period. This lower rate of productivity during recessions （or during the afternoon slow period, in the restaurant） doesnt reflect changes in the available technology, but only changes in the rate at which firms utilize capital and labor. Hence you should be cautious about interpreting cyclical changes in the Solow residual （equivalently, total factor productivity, A） as solely reflecting changes in technology.
