Abenomics: Vstříc světlejším zítřkům, nebo stále to samé?
Pinta, Ondřej ; Potužák, Pavel (advisor) ; Špecián, Petr (referee)
This thesis investigates the impact of Abenomics policies, named after the new Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, on the economy. His so-called "three arrows" agenda includes fiscal expansion, quantitative and qualitative monetary easing, and regulatory reforms. This work focuses on the assessment of the fulfillment of set goals and compares Abenomics to previous policies. Abe's cabinet succeeded in raising inflation and depreciating yen. The debt growth has almost halted and the GDP has mildly recovered. However, the economy is still far from stable. This thesis also explores further issues encountered by the Japanese economy such as the shut-down of nuclear power plants and effects of the zero lower bound constraint. This work introduces a synthetic counterfactual to assess the real results of Abenomics. This method builds a model of an alternate Japan, in which Abe had not assumed the office. The results suggest that the impact of Abenomics on the GDP per capita is slightly positive or negligible.
Japanese economy by the end of tokugawa shogunate
Pinta, Ondřej ; Skřivan, Aleš (advisor) ; Szobi, Pavel (referee)
This work focuses on the analysis of the Japanese economy during the last phase of the tokugawa shogunate. Japanese economy in this time has shifted towards the upcoming industrialization and its character has been changing as a whole. Considering these conditions I analyze the impact of various factors on the people's wealth. I examine consequences of division between classes, clans and by individual types of government. In this work I describe them and set in context. I also show that Japan during this time has come close to modern countries in the terms of population growth. The reason is that the increments in the production haven't been fully transferred into increases in population. In this work I also describe change in the form of production growth. It has changed to increasing productivity rather than expansion of arable land. In the end I come to the conclusion that by the end of Tokugawa era, basis for rapid future growth has been laid.
