Keywords:
Global Inflation, Post-Pandemic Economy, Supply Chain Disruption, Energy Prices, Monetary Policy, Fiscal Stimulus, Demand Recovery, Price StabilityAbstract
This article examines global inflation in the post-pandemic period, focusing on its main drivers, dynamics, and economic consequences. Following the COVID-19 crisis, the world economy experienced a sharp increase in inflation due to disrupted supply chains, rising energy and food prices, and expansionary fiscal and monetary policies. The study analyzes statistical trends across major economies and highlights the role of demand recovery, labor market imbalances, and geopolitical tensions in accelerating price growth. Particular attention is given to the differences between developed and developing countries in terms of inflationary pressures and policy responses. The article also evaluates the effectiveness of central banks’ measures, including interest rate hikes and tightening policies, in stabilizing prices. The findings suggest that while global inflation has started to decline, structural challenges remain, requiring coordinated policy actions. This research contributes to a better understanding of inflation patterns in the post-pandemic global economy.
