The Phillips Curve is world famous amongst
economists. The man it is named after was
an inventor, an engineer, a genius, who led
an exciting life and contributed to economies
in many different ways. Born and brought up
on a remote farm in rural NJew Zealand, his
early life was a search for adventure. He
invented toys and rebuilt machinery as a *
child. He experienced the rigours of the Great-
Depression on construction sites, and while still
a young man roamed the outback of Australia
picking up casual work, sometimes working
in gold mines, sometimes crocodile hunting,
in 1 93Z he set off to discover m\V\\ainzL}ng
Japan, a guerrilla war in AAanchuria, Stalin's
Soviet Union, and the tensions in Europe. On
the outbreak of war, he joined the RAF and was
sent to Singapore where he rearmed planes but
was eventually incarcerated in a POW camp
by the Japanese. There he learned languages,
invented gadgets for the troops, and built
clandestine radios.
If his first 30 years had been a search
for adventure, his later life was a search for
economic stability. Back in Britain after the war,
he scraped through a sociology degree at the
LSE, before convincing a sceptical faculty to
let him build a hydraulic model of the economy.
This beautiful complex machine was a great
success and put Bill Phillips on the track of
serious economics. In the next few decades he
developed new ideas for stabilizing economies,
was one of the first to use electronic computers,
developed the Phillips Curve, showed ways
to help an economy to grow, and developed
new techniques to model economies. Always
innovative, he took another heading in his
later years, working out how to stabilize the
Chinese economy that was being wracked
by the Cultural Revolution. Bill Phillips
forged a dozen new directions in
economics, making him one of the
most innovative and influential of
our economic pioneers. |
