George L. Perry and William C. Brainard

1985, No. 1

THIS ISSUE OF Brookings Papers on Economic Activity contains papers
and discussions presented at the thirty-ninth conference of the Brookings
Panel on Economic Activity, which was held in Washington, D.C., on
April 4 and 5, 1985. Three articles cover, respectively, the determinants
of U. S. business investment, wage developments in declining, unionized
industries, and the U.S. economic policy posture during the 1980s. A
special symposium of three short papers and three discussion papers
explores exchange rate movements and their implications. One shorter
report examines the disinflation of the 1980s.

The Brookings Institution is committed to quality, independence, and impact.
We are supported by a diverse array of funders. In line with our values and policies, each Brookings publication represents the sole views of its author(s).
