今天的世界经济与上世纪30年代有很大不同，当时会议主席西摩·哈里斯(Seymour Harris)以他对经济学的无限热情，以及他对经济学有能力创造良好成果的坚定信心，感染了我。经济学也有很大不同。自第二次世界大战以来，科学及其学科都发生了变化，而且变得更好。但有一些值得注意的不变。失业和通货膨胀仍然是经济学家、政治家、记者、家庭主妇和其他所有人关注和困扰的问题。它们之间的联系是总统和总理的主要国内经济负担，也是宏观经济学中争议和无知的主要领域。这次我选择回顾关于这个话题的经济思想，部分原因是它不可避免的及时性，部分原因是我个人的兴趣可以追溯到我1941年出版的第一本著作。
The world economy today is vastly different from the 1930s, when Seymour Harris, the chairman of this meeting, infected me with his boundless enthusiasm for economics and his steadfast confidence in its capacity for good works. Economics is very different, too. Both the science and its subject have changed, and for the better, since World War II. But there are some notable constants. Unemployment and inflation still preoccupy and perplex economists, statesmen, journalists, housewives, and everyone else. The connection between them is the principal domestic economic burden of presidents and prime ministers, and the major area of controversy and ignorance in macroeconomics. I have chosen to review economic thought on this topic on this occasion, partly because of its inevitable timeliness, partly because of a personal interest reaching back to my first published work in 1941.
