We construct a utility-based model of fluctuations, with nominal rigidities and unemployment, and draw its implications … for the unemployment-inflation trade- off and for the conduct of monetary policy. We proceed in two steps. We first leave … unemployment in the constrained efficient allocation. We then focus on the implications of alternative real wage setting mechanisms …
