We consider a medium-scale New-Keynesian model which combines features that have been shown to explain fairly well postwar U.S. business cycles. Our main result demonstrates that the determinacy properties of forward-looking interest rate rules resemble, at least qualitatively, the corresponding...

In the presence of capital accumulation the Taylor principle may not be sufficient for determinacy under reasonable parameter values. In this paper I consider a two-sector extension of the models used in the existing literature. I show that what matters for whether the Taylor principle is...
