This paper develops a model which can explain the hump-shaped impulse response of inflation to a monetary shock. A …). Nevertheless, we can show that inflation is hump-shaped under a reasonable range of parameters. It will be also shown that, in … order for inflation to be hump-shaped, sticky wages and variable capital utilization are important as well as dynamic …

This paper shows the way how persistent world inflation shocks hitting a small open economy can re-weight the … inflation. We derive a state-dependent Phillips curve based on translog preferences that make the elasticity of substitution of … disinflation on domestic inflation, as experienced in small open economies such as New Zealand, Chile and Peru …
