General economic theory
This appears multiple times in this document. The document is a very long paper on the features and pros/cons of Keynesian vs. monetarist economic theory in relation to the current credit crisis and to previous financial crises. I have translated it as 'structural' so far but would appreciate comments.
For example:
'régime monétariste structurel' and 'régime keynésien structurel' in the sentence 'L’autre point excessivement important est l’impact de la globalisation et du passage brutal du régime monétariste structurel au régime keynésien structurel'. I have Googled various combinations of these words in English, as phrases or not and don't get many hits, if any (e.g. "Keynesian structural regime" and "monetarist structural regime" as phrases get no hits at all).
Another example:
"ce n'est qu'à partir de 1999 que le monde a littéralement basculé d'un contexte structurel fortement inflationniste à un contexte d'inflation structurellement faible"
Thanks in advance!

(economic) structure
The "structurel" here seems to be invoking economic structure, and I think using that term makes the "regime" and "context" terms (mostly) redundant, eg.:
"the abrupt move from a monetarist economic structure to a Keynesian economic structure"
and
"from a strongly inflationist economic structure to a structurally weak inflationary context."

My first, more conservative, interpretation was to render the "structurel" as "in structure", so "a regime that was monetarist in structure to one that is Keynesian instructure".
"the abrupt move from a monetarist economic structure to a Keynesian economic structure"
and
"from a strongly inflationist economic structure to a structurally weak inflationary context."
