In her June 1984 interview with Michael Cooke, Ruth Erline Mathis Martin (1934-2020) discussed her time as a DHEC employee in the sickle cell anemia program. She covered topics of DHEC's involvement with community groups, sickle...
This article assesses the relations between Martin Peerson’s Mottects or Grave Chamber Musique (1630) and Fulke Greville’s lyric sequence Caelica.1 It focuses on two particular questions: what kind of an interpretation or...
Quantitative Easing (QE) has been used in the UK and US as an unconventional monetary policy response to the financial crisis. QE involves large scale asset purchases by Central Banks, amounting to $3 trillion in the US and £375...

Investments in newer diagnostics and antimicrobial treatments are critical to improve management of enteric fever in South Asia, say Christopher Parry and colleagues
Martin White and coauthors consider that the commercial food system has the potential to show leadership and support for dietary public health, but systemic change is needed first and this is likely to require governmental action
Primary craters are created by objects impacting on the surface a terrestrial body. The ejecta caused by primary impacts make smaller, secondary craters. The number of primary craters on a surface indicate how long that surface...
Evaluation of Quantitative Easing (QE) is difficult as it is only used in response to severe and unusual economic difficulties. Despite this, we argue that two main conclusions can be drawn from a sceptical reading of the...

This paper argues that UK monetary policymakers did not respond to the inflation rate during most of the “Great Moderation” that ran from the early 1990s to the mid-2000s. We derive a generalisation of the New Keynesian Phillips...
This project examines the life and career of Hungarian-born athlete Nick Martin. It explores the opportunities available to Martin via his success as an Olympic athlete.
The existing literature often incorporates ad-hoc models of exogenous real wage rigidity into search frictions models of the labour market in order to match the large volatility of unemployment observed in the data. In this...

The issue of which measure of inflation ought to be targeted by policymakers has been extensively analysed, but the equally important issue of which inflation rate is actually targeted by policymakers in practice has been given...
This paper explores the decomposition of equilibrium unemployment into involuntary and frictional components using a model that combines eciency wages with search and matching frictions in the labour market. In deriving our...

We analyse UK monetary policy using monthly data for 1992-2010. We have two main findings. First, the Taylor rule breaks down after 2007 as the estimated response to inflation falls markedly and becomes insignificant. Second...

This paper investigates changes to the macroeconomic transmission mechanism in Turkey following a major reform of monetary policy in the early 2000s. We use a Threshold VAR (TVAR) framework to test for and then estimate a model...

This paper proposes a modified version of the standard search and matching model of the labour market that includes a shirking mechanism. We show that our model delivers a close match to the simulated...
