We consider the properties of two monetary policy rules ('strict inflation targeting', 'constant money growth rule') in an intertemporal equilibrium model with flexible prices in which monetary policy is 'active', while fiscal policy is 'passive'. Specifically, we assume that the fiscal agent...

We consider the properties of two monetary policy rules (monetary targeting, Taylor-type interest rate rule) in an intertemporal equilibrium model with capital accumulation and two outside assets (government bonds, fiat money). The paper shows that the long-run behaviour of the economy depends...

This paper offers a framework to study commitment and cooperation issues in games with multiple policymakers. To reconcile some puzzles in the recent literature on the nature of policy interactions among nations, we prove that games characterized by different commitment and cooperation schemes...
