Monetary-fiscal policy interactions when price stability occasionally takes a back seat
Schmidt, Sebastian - 2024
What are the macroeconomic consequences of a government that is limited in its willingness or ability to raise primary surpluses, and a central bank that accommodates its interest-rate policy to the fiscal conditions? I address this question in a dynamic stochastic sticky-price model with...

Convex supply curves
Boehm, Christoph E.; Pandalai-Nayar, Nitya - 2020
