The recent conclusions of the research on the unicist ontology of inflation have a direct impact on long term planning and short term price policies.

Inflation is the anti-concept of the value of currency. Currency, by nature “is” a value contract between its owner and its administrator. Inflation destroys the credibility of this contract.

The research in this field began 25 years ago and was led by Peter Belohlavek at The Unicist Research Institute. The final stages to confirm the hypothesis were based on the inflation in the Real Estate business in the USA and Spain and the use of consumerism as a way to overcome economic and financial crises of different countries.

This knowledge would have allowed avoiding the Internet bubble and the Real Estate / financial crises.

This research shows that in stable cultures inflation is the consequence of a lack of the administration of currency, while in unstable cultures it is also used as an adjustment mechanism to redistribute wealth or avoid social conflicts.

Inflation is driven by emission that diminishes the value of currency. It has to be considered that emission also includes public and private debt.

Inflation is also driven by price changes to increase profits, compensate demand falls, speculation and the anticipation of inflation. At an extreme level, this “axe” generates hyperinflation and/or social chaos.

This discovery closes the circle of macro-microeconomic research. This circle is integrated by the ontologies of currency, growth and inflation. It is applicable to capitalist, non-capitalist and pre-capitalist countries.

At a private level, the knowledge of these ontologies allows developing long term plans and short term price policies.
