    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informatik och media

    Nyckelord :economic inequality; class; global upper class; globally super-rich; global elite; discourse; culture industry; field theory; multimodal critical discourse analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Research suggests that society is facing continued increasing economic inequalities where structural forces such as neoliberalism and globalisation are behind the emergence of a new group of globally super-rich. Since media is a place where social class is expressed, depicted and represented, it can have a particularly important role regarding what discourses about the global upper class are generated.

    Nyckelord :Distributional Variables; Heterogeneous Agents; Inflation; Phillips Curve; Inequality;

    Sammanfattning : Does information on the distribution of wealth and income help us forecast aggregate macroeconomic variables? In this thesis, we study how adding such distributional variables to a standard forecasting model affects the forecast accuracy, in the context of inflation forecasting. Using the simulated inflation forecasting approach of Atkeson and Ohanian (2001), we perform a horse race between a textbook NAIRU Phillips curve to an extension augmented with variables from the wealth and income distributions.
