Florence Barber Diary, 1902, 1901
No full textThis diary was formerly described as an unattributed diary and entitled: Diary (Portsmouth, Va.), 1901, but has now been attributed to Florence Barber of Norfolk, Virginia. In brief daily entries she talks about the weather, chores, and social life, trips to town, church, attending meetings, etc. In August she went to visit churches and schools in Georgia and Alabama, like Atlanta University and Spelman College, both historically black schools. She also mentions teaching music, attending educational meetings in Portsmouth and being elected president of the local YMCA. September 3 is the last entry in this diary.Research conducted by William and Mary students in 2011 pointed to Florence Barber as the owner and author of this diary. Their research also corrected that the diary was actually from 1902, not 1901 and that the author lived in Norfolk, not Portsmouth, Virginia. The diary was transcribed and made available online in 2012.For a more detailed description from staff as well as description and excerpts from the diary provided by the seller, please see digital item:

Le Nairu en France : les insuffisances d'une courbe de Phillips
No full textThe NAIRU in France: The Shortcomings of a Phillips Curve by Yannick L'Horty and Florence Thibault
The Phillips curve has long been the preferred instrument for explaining the link between wages and unemployment. Its implicit NAIRU level theoretically provides a valuable guide for economic policy in that it can be used to assess the respective opportunities of supply policy and demand policy. The article opens with a review of this relation's given bases and its main implications. It then discusses its shortcomings in a situation where the unemployment rate remains sustainably high and goes on to highlight the advantages of a wage curve representation in level. As an example, an evaluation of the French NAIRU is made based on a standard price- wage loop specified in terms of growth rates without an error correction term, i.e. in line with standard modeling practice. The NAIRU thus evaluated shows no upward trend since 1 970. As a linear combination of stationary variables, it is itself a stationary variable and fluctuates around a constant that by definition corresponds to the average level of actual unemployment. Consequently, no reliable measure of equilibrium unemployment can be found to satisfy Phillips' initial aim, which was to justify the intervention of economic policy.Le Nairu en France : les insuffisances d'une courbe de Phillips par Yannick L'Horty et Florence Thibault
La courbe de Phillips a longtemps été un instrument privilégié pour expliquer le lien entre salaire et chômage. Le niveau du Nairu qui lui est implicite fournit en théorie un guide précieux pour la politique économique permettant d' apprécier l' opportunité respective d'une politique d'offre ou de demande. Cet article rappelle dans un premier temps les fondements donnés à cette relation et ses principaux enjeux. En second lieu, il discute ses insuffisances dans un contexte où le taux de chômage se maintient durablement à un niveau élevé et souligne a contrario les avantages d'une représentation de type courbe de salaire en niveau. À titre d'illustration, une évaluation du Nairu français a été réalisée sur la base d'une boucle prix-salaire standard spécifiée en taux de croissance et sans terme de rappel, c'est-à-dire conformément à la pratique traditionnelle des modélisateurs. Le Nairu ainsi évalué ne présente pas de tendance à la hausse depuis 1970. Combinaison linéaire de variables stationnaires, il est lui-même une variable stationnaire et fluctue autour d'une constante qui correspond par construction au niveau moyen du chômage effectif. On ne dispose donc pas d'une mesure fiable du chômage d'équilibre permettant de satisfaire l'objectif initial de Phillips qui était de fonder l'intervention de politique économique.L'Horty Yannick, Thibault Florence.
