The conventional (Chicago) wisdom about the Great Contraction is that it was the result of a massive policy failure. According to this view, the collapse of the economy was brought about mostly by the fact that the monetary policymakers of the day were more concerned with internal power...

The book offers a clear-cut methodology to diagnose organizational strengths and weakness at the onset of development activities. With it, beneficiaries can respond to growing pressures from donors for accountable and sustainable use of funding.Abstract: Ofrece una metodología clara para...

We present an algorithm and software routines for computing nth-order approximate solutions to dynamic, discrete-time rational expectations models around a nonstochastic steady state. We apply these routines to investigate the optimal monetary policy with commitment in an optimizing-agent model...

This paper describes an extension of the stack algorithm of Julliard, which makes it possible to (a) use any linear terminal condition, and (b) compute fixed points with the algorithm. Numerical results are presented for solving three different macroeconomic models including the Canada Model....

Anderson's papers describe a method for solving linear saddle point models. The numerical implementation of the algorithm has proved useful in a wide array of applications including analyzing linear perfect foresight models, and providing initial solutions and asymptotic constraints for...
