The paper puts forward a deterministic macrodynamic model of the business cycle that allows for sluggish price and quantity adjustments in response to disequilibrium on product and labour markets. Based on regular oscillations of two exogenous variables, 14 reaction coefficients are determined...

We study the implications of uncertainty for inflation targeting. We apply multiplicative uncertainty to a standard forward looking model and demonstrate Brainard's attenuation effect. But the result as monetary authorities become naturally more cautious at the same time monetary objectives are...

Pioneering work of modelling financial anxieties was given by Kimura et al (1999) as psychological change of people due to financial shocks. Since they regressed financial position (easy or tight) by nonstationary interest rate, their results exhibit high peaks not only in financial crisis...
