Question

Use appropriate diagrams to explain graphically how an aggregate demand shock can lead to the economy entering a deflation trap. Does every permanent negative demand shock lead to a deflation trap? If not, show graphically an example of where a negative demand shock leads to a temporary deflation episode, but the economy does not fall into the trap (i.e. it goes to a medium run equilibrium). Draw the appropriate diagrams and briefly explain your reasoning. [Word limit = 250 words]
