Shocks, Structures or Monetary Policies? The Euro Area and US After 2001
Christiano, Lawrence J. - 2007

Towards a Robust Monetary Policy Rule for the Euro Area
Blattner, Tobias Sebastian - 2010

Ravenna, Federico - 2005
This paper shows that the credibility gain from permanently committing to a fixed exchange rate by joining the European Monetary Union can outweigh the loss from giving up independent monetary policy. When the central bank enjoys only limited credibility a pegged exchange rate regime yields a...
