This paper proceeds by explaining deflation and aggregate price determination in more detail. Then, some facts about the development of Japan, 1990–2001, are provided, together with an extensive interpretation. This is followed by a closer examination of the official Japanese interpretation, contrasting it with my own views. Finally, some concluding remarks are offered.
