The UK Economy - a Long Run Perspective

Geoff Riley

7th October 2009

Share this content:

We tend to focus on short run changes in output, jobs, prices and profits and risk missing the long term picture of where an economy is. A year ago I produced this chartroom presentation as the UK economy entered recession - this has now been updated and might be useful for colleagues helping students develop an appreciation of the long-run trends in key UK economic data. It is available for download in pdf and scorn-compliant VLE format.
