The consensus at the time, of course, was that a robust V shaped recovery was around the corner, and it was foolish to embrace inflation heterodoxy. I thought otherwise, based on research underlying my 2009 book with Carmen M. Reinhart, This Time is Different.

My Petersen Institute colleague Carmen Reinhardt suspects that financial repression will be the main debt reduction method governments will rely on regulation and manipulation to force savers to pay down public debt through negative real returns on their bond investments.

This is not the first time that an Argentine default has upended international capital markets. According to the tabulation that Carmen Reinhart and I compiled in our 2009 book This Time is Different, Argentina has defaulted on seven previous occasions in 1827, 1890, 1951, 1956, 1982, 1989, and 2001.

Even if one accepts the claim of the Harvard economists Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff that very high public debt levels mean lower growth a view that they never really established and that has subsequently been discredited Australia is nowhere near that threshold. Its debt GDP ratio is only a fraction of that of the US, and one of the lowest among the OECD countries.

But, as Carmen Reinhart and Ken Rogoff have long documented, post crisis healing is typically slow and painful. Notwithstanding the Fed s claims that its unconventional policies have been the elixir of economic renewal in the US, the healing process still has years to go.

In their widely cited paper Growth in a Time of Debt, Kenneth Rogoff and Carmen Reinhart argue that, when government debt exceeds 90 of GDP, countries suffer slower economic growth. Many Western countries national debt is now dangerously near, and in some cases above, this critical threshold.

Egypt s public debt is around 80 of GDP, very close to the 90 level that economists Kenneth Rogoff and Carmen Reinhart identify as a harbinger of slower growth and heightened vulnerability to financial and fiscal crises. Egyptians need only glance north, at the European debt crisis, to understand they should sort out their debt problem now, rather than waiting until it reaches Greek proportions.

The first account relied on the view, most closely associated with the economists Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff, that recovery from a recession takes longer if the cause was a crash in housing and financial markets. But this historical pattern is more a statement about the magnitude of the initial decline and the time needed to recover fully than a prediction about the annual rate of growth during the recovery phase.

MILAN In a recent set of studies, Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff used a vast array of historical data to show that the accumulation of high levels of public (and private) debt relative to GDP has an extended negative effect on growth. The size of the effect incited debate about errors in their calculations.

As Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff tell it in their masterly book This Time is Different, there is no secure way of short circuiting a deep banking crisis. The crisis originates with excessive debt accumulation, which makes economies vulnerable to crises of confidence.

As Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff argue, recoveries from crises that result from over leveraged balance sheets are slow and typically resistant to traditional macroeconomic stimulus. Over levered households cannot spend, over levered banks cannot lend, and over levered governments cannot stimulate.

The other part of the explanation follows from what the economists Guillermo Calvo and Carmen Reinhart call fear of floating. Many market participants know from past experience (recall 2008 2009, for example) that emerging economies central banks fear sharp depreciations, and that in moments of stress they tend to intervene, at least temporarily, to support the exchange rate, smoothing its decline.

In a May 2010 Washington Post editorial (co authored with Vincent Reinhart), she described Five Myths About the European Debt Crisis among them, Myth 3 Fiscal austerity will solve Europe s debt woes. We have repeated the mantra dozens of times in various settings, as any fair observer would confirm.

CANBERRA The brouhaha over Carmen Reinhart s and Kenneth Rogoff s article Growth in a Time of Debt may be the most conspicuous and incendiary scholarly controversy since 1974, when two earlier economists, Robert Fogel and Stanley Engerman, published a notorious book, Time on the Cross, defending the efficiency of American plantation slavery.
