Резюме

Малко са икономическите въпроси, които през последния половин векпораждат толкова чести политически противоречия в САЩ, какъвто етози за минималната заплата. Във връзка с това са разгледани не самополитическите мотиви, които стоят зад заявените на последните избо-ри усилия минималната работна заплата да се превърне в екзистенц-минимум, но и множеството свързани с нея икономически ефекти катоинфлацията и безработицата – както от макро-, така и от микроикономическаперспектива. Предложени са няколко концептуални оригинални модела вразлични икономически ситуации, изготвени с помощта на регресионенанализ, които са тествани за осем американски щата през периода 1996-2016 г. Резултатите показват, че високата минимална работна заплатаможе да има негативен ефект по отношение на заетостта, но умереното йприлагане може да повлияе положително върху непроменливите заплатипри икономически подобряващи се инфлационни условия, без това дадоведе до драстично намаляване на заетостта в краткосрочен план
