Few topics have sustained the interest of policymakers and economists as long and as intensively as inflation. There is no mystery about why: it is the ‘almost unbroken chronicle in every country which has a history, back to the earliest dawn of economic record, of a progressive deterioration in the real value of the successive legal tenders which have represented money’ (Keynes, 1923, p. 63).
