Abstract

This paper explores the complex phenomenon of inflation in Argentina and the United States through a qualitative lens, offering a comparative analysis that captures the diverse experiences and perspectives of individuals from both nations. The paper examines the historical context of both countries to further develop key inflation perspectives and experiences in both nations. By interviewing two family members in Argentina and an Economics professor in the United States, the study bridges personal and academic viewpoints to unravel the multifaceted impacts of inflation. Argentina's prolonged struggle with inflation, characterized by historical policy inconsistencies and economic mismanagement, contrasts with the relatively stable and managed inflationary environment of the United States. The research highlights the significant role of government policies, societal impacts, and individual adaptations in shaping the lived experiences of inflation. The study aims to shed light on the underlying causes, policy responses, and socioeconomic consequences of inflation, ultimately contributing to a broader understanding of this pervasive economic issue.
