In this study, we first review the bifurcation phenomena in dynamic economic systems and point out the importance of bifurcations together with a summary of the common types of bifurcations which have been encountered in economic research. Although bifurcation analysis is a relatively new...

El canal de transmisión de la política monetaria en el modelo neo keynesiano (NK) se basa en la suposición contrafactual de expectativas racionales e información completa (FIRE, por sus siglas en inglés), especialmente en la dimensión de equilibrio general (EG). El presente documento...

This paper empirically examines the impact of oil price volatility on key macroeconomic indicators of Thailand. Following Andersen et al. [2004. Analytical evaluation of volatility forecasts. International Economic Review 45(4), 1079-1110], quarterly oil price volatility is measured by using the...

Public capital has been considered to be the wheels of economic activity in a nation or region. The reverse effect, the contribution of economic growth to public capital, is also worth analysis. The non-structural vector auto-regression (VAR) approach is performed for the Australian economy...

We show that several shocks identifi ed without restrictions from a model, and frequently used in the empirical literature, display some persistence. We demonstrate that the two leading methods to recover impulse responses to shocks (moving average representations and local projections) treat...

In most instances, the dynamic response of monetary and other policies to shocks is infrequent and lumpy. The same holds for the microeconomic response of some of the most important economic variables, such as investment, labor demand, and prices. We show that the standard practice of estimating...

Rationale Cyclical fluctuations in investment are usually sharper than fluctuations in other components of aggregate demand. This article aims to analyse, based on an econometric model, the role played by interest rates, demand and agents’ confidence (the drivers traditionally studied in the...

This paper is a deductive theoretical enquiry into the flow of effects from the geometry of price bubbles/busts, to price indices, to pricing behaviours of sellers and buyers, and back to price bubbles/busts. The intent of the analysis is to suggest analytical approaches to identify the...
