CLOSED SHOP: An employment arrangement, usually written into a collective bargaining agreement, in which a firm is allowed to hire only labor union members. Because this gives a labor union complete control over the labor services supplied to a particular firm, it was one of the earliest methods used by labor unions to monopolized a labor market. However, closed shops were outlawed by the Taft-Hartley Act passed in 1947 and has been largely supplanted by union shops.

The case of an decrease in the SRAS curve. Again we start at long-run equilibrium, Po and Qf.- With a leftward shift of the SRAS curve, the aggregate market achieves short-run equilibrium at a higher price level and less real production.
- The labor market imbalance causes wages and production cost to fall. The SRAS shifts rightward, returning to its original position. The price level and real production return to full employment levels.
From long run to long run, nothing changed. But before the long-run adjustment, we have less production at higher prices.

RECESSIONARY GAP, KEYNESIAN MODEL The difference between equilibrium aggregate production achieved in the Keynesian model and full-employment aggregate production that occurs when equilibrium aggregate production is less than full-employment aggregate production. A recessionary gap, also termed a contractionary gap, is associated with a business-cycle contraction. The prescribed Keynesian remedy for a recessionary gap is expansionary fiscal policy. This is one of two alternative output gaps that can occur when equilibrium generates production that differs from full employment. The other is an inflationary gap.
