Abstract

Recent research by Professor Steve H. Hanke and Nicholas Krus has for the first time documented and categorized all known cases of hyperinflation. The scale of the phenomenon of hyperinflation is enormous, making visualization and understanding of hyperinflation events difficult for scholars, both within and without the economic community, to comprehend. Faced with this challenge, and equipped with newly compiled hyperinflation data, I created an interactive visualization site (econographic.com) that allows users to explore each hyperinflation episode and see how different inflation rates and durations affect prices.
