The findings suggest that the inflationary ¡°pressures¡± are not too high and, therefore, there is room for trade-balance improvement. %K Cost-Push Inflation %K Drachma Devaluation %K Dynamic Input-Output Price Models %K Greek Economy %K International Competitiveness %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=18134
