Abstract

La estabilidad relativa de los últimos años quizá lleve a algunos a pensar que la inflación alta y crónica y la hiperinflación han sido erradicadas para siempre. La historia no justifica esta conclusión. Con el propósito de no olvidar esta lección, este artículo examina brevemente todos los episodios de hiperinflación que han ocurrido en economías de mercado desde mediados de los años cincuenta.
